Lenco LS-55WA — A Wooden Turntable with Bluetooth and USB Encoding

The Lenco LS-55WA is a home turntable designed for vinyl enthusiasts who want modern connectivity alongside classic analog playback. Built around a belt-drive mechanism, this model supports 33, 45, and 78 RPM speeds for standard LPs, 7-inch singles, and older shellac records. The wooden cabinet houses an integrated amplifier with 2 x 5 W output and a passive radiator for enhanced bass. Bluetooth 4.2 streaming and USB MP3 encoding bridge traditional record playback with contemporary digital workflows.

What Sets This Model Apart

Unlike basic entry-level decks, this turntable includes a passive radiator for deeper bass without requiring a subwoofer. Direct USB-A encoding lets owners digitize their vinyl collection to MP3 files without a computer, preserving fragile records for portable listening. Bluetooth 4.2 with a 10-meter signal range streams audio from phones and tablets through the integrated amplifier and RCA-connected speakers.
