If you’ve ever caught even a flicker of Elvis fever, I’m about to make your next purchase decision as smooth as a hip swivel. Two audio legends have just dropped music players that pay homage to the King of Rock ’n’ Roll himself. Honestly, they’ve nailed that sweet spot between kitsch and cool—so start clearing some shelf space because these beauties deserve a prime spot.

Rewinding to Retro Cool: The Elvis Cassette Player by We Are Rewind

First up is the limited edition Elvis cassette player from We Are Rewind. Now, don’t roll your eyes thinking this is some dusty museum relic. It’s actually based on their cult-favorite WE-001 cassette player model, which has already made waves by marrying retro aesthetics with modern-day tech.

This special edition sports a matte black finish with gold accents that scream Elvis charisma. It draws obvious inspiration from the iconic ‘68 Comeback Special — yes, the one with the giant red “Elvis” sign glowing in the background. Talk about style points!

Inside the box, you’ll find a remastered cassette featuring Elvis’s Christmas album. Honestly, it might be the only holiday album that makes crooning about snowflakes sound downright seductive.

But wait, the hardware isn’t just about looks. For a cassette player, it’s pretty loaded: Bluetooth 5.1 connectivity, a rechargeable battery good for 12 hours of playback, a headphone jack, and even a line-in input for recording your own tunes. Talk about bringing vintage into the 21st century.

Vinyl Vibes: Pro-Ject’s Elvis Tribute Turntable

Now, if you’re more of a vinyl devotee who likes your hi-fi with a touch of Vegas sparkle, Pro-Ject has got you covered. They recently unveiled their own Elvis tribute turntable, an analog aficionado's dream deck.

This turntable is part of Pro-Ject’s Artist Collection — the same series that previously paid homage to giants like Metallica and The Beatles. For the King, they crafted a CNC-machined body that proudly displays a glowing “Elvis” logo thanks to dimmable built-in LEDs. Talk about stage presence.

Underneath that flashy exterior is a serious audiophile machine. It sports a 9-inch aluminum tonearm, pre-fitted with a Sumiko Rainier cartridge — so no fiddling with tiny screws or tweezers necessary. The 1.7-kilogram glass platter ensures steady rotation, while electronic speed switching between 33 and 45 RPM means you’re ready for any vinyl session. Honestly, stare at it long enough and you half expect it to belt out “Jailhouse Rock.”

Why These Players Should Be Your Next Buy

If Elvis is your jam, snagging these players feels less like a purchase and more like a pilgrimage. Honestly, I’m talking about both of them.

The limited We Are Rewind x Elvis cassette player is available for pre-order at $199/€179 online only, while the Pro-Ject Elvis turntable is ready to ship now from Henley Audio at £1199/€1399. They’re collectibles with genuine functionality, perfect for anyone wanting to keep the King’s spirit alive the coolest way possible.
