TEAC’s Turquoise Bluetooth Turntable Shines as a Limited-Edition Color Drop

This turquoise Bluetooth turntable brings a fresh pop of color to your space while delivering vintage audio charm and modern convenience.

A Turntable That's as Much About Style as Sound

There’s something undeniably captivating about a turntable that looks as good as it sounds—and TEAC’s Special Edition Turquoise Blue TN-400BTX nails that balance. For those of us who have watched vinyl’s resurgence unfold, it’s clear that record players have become more than just audio gear; they’re statement pieces, focal points that anchor a room’s vibe. The usual suspects in the design department have been black, silver, or the occasional wood finish, but this glossy turquoise lacquer on TEAC’s platform feels like a breath of fresh air.

Imagine this beauty catching rays of sunlight in your living room, its turquoise plinth glowing beneath a clear dust cover, spinning your favorite vinyl. It’s not just a turntable—it’s a mid-century modern accent piece with personality. Unlike the ubiquitous black boxes that fade into the background, this one demands attention, even when the needle's still resting.

Classic Mechanics Wrapped in Joyful Color

Despite the bold new look, TEAC hasn’t messed with the solid mechanics under the hood. The TN-400BTX is a manual belt-drive turntable with a three-speed setup—33 1/3, 45, and 78 RPM—ready to handle a variety of vinyl treasures. The die-cast aluminum platter spins atop a low-friction spindle housed in a brass bearing, promising smooth, stable rotation that audiophiles appreciate.

The tonearm is a highlight: an S-shaped, static-balanced aluminum arm with adjustable counterweight and anti-skate features. TEAC sweetens the deal with a pre-installed Audio-Technica AT95E MM cartridge. This means you can drop that needle straight out of the box—or swap it for an upgrade down the road as your ears evolve.

Versatile Audio Connectivity for Modern Listening

Here’s where TEAC blends analog warmth with wireless convenience. The built-in phono EQ amplifier features an NJM8080 op-amp that boosts the delicate signal from the stylus with minimal distortion. This thoughtful design lets you plug the turntable directly into any line-level input—be it your amplifier or powered speakers—without an external phono preamp.

If you’re a bit more particular about your setup, you can switch to phono output and crank up the fidelity with an external stage. Gold-plated RCA jacks and a grounding terminal complete the wired connections, keeping things straightforward yet high-quality.

But what truly elevates this deck is the Bluetooth 5.2 transmitter packed inside. Supporting SBC, aptX, and aptX Adaptive codecs, it streams your vinyl spins to Bluetooth headphones or speakers with impressive sound quality and reduced latency. Switching between traditional wired listening and wireless sessions is a breeze—just hit the pairing button and let the music flow.

A Limited-Edition Splash of Personality in a Sea of Black

This Special Edition turquoise lacquer is not just a new color option; it’s a limited-run celebration of style. TEAC’s high-density MDF plinth wrapped in glossy turquoise lacquer transforms a solid, proven turntable into a joyful centerpiece you might just design your listening nook around.

For vinyl lovers tired of the sea of black boxes that dominate the market, this splash of color stands out. It boldly says you care about how your music sounds and looks. After all, why settle for a turntable that hides in plain sight when one can be a vibrant conversation starter?

Vinyl isn’t just about nostalgia—it’s about an experience. With TEAC’s Turquoise Bluetooth turntable, that experience comes wrapped in a hue that’s as lively and unique as your favorite record collection.
