Phonograph and CD Player In One

CD Player Phonograph

Take a phonograph and mix it with a CD player, what do you get? A Phonograph that can play CDs of course. A good concept by Yong Jieyu that puts retro style and technology side by side.

In case you are interested in more details about how this cool phonograph was done and how it works, keep reading:

A CD player was disassembled and the components rearranged to suit the layout of a phonograph. The speakers are put below the trumpet loudspeaker for amplification. The wooden box is made slightly more spacious then the electrical PCB board needed to achieve bass resonance.

The laser pointer is shifted to the top allowing the spin of the CD to be clearly shown.

It exists for real, but only as a concept and it isn’t available for purchase. You can read more info at the designers website (first link of the post).
