Listen to vinyl anywhere with this extremely portable record player

Anyone who really listens to vinyl knows the medium is far from dead. But convincing others of its appeal can be an uphill battle. For one thing, there's the gear: A quality record player takes up a lot more space than, say, a smartphone packed with thousands of streaming songs at the ready. But here's where RokBlok: The World's Smallest Record Player excels. It not only makes your listening party portable but a heck of a lot more fun.

What we have here is essentially an audiophile's robot buddy. Lay any 33 1/3 or 45 RPM record on a flat surface, and the RokBlok roves around on top of it with vinyl-safe rubber wheels, playing the songs through its own built-in speaker. Made of bamboo and MDF, it's smaller than a record itself at just 2" x 4", which means you can take it anywhere. And if you want a sound boost, it can transmit to Bluetooth-enabled speakers within 30 feet.

Right now, you can pick up the RokBlok for $99. Read the rest
