Description
WIFI Multiroom Vintage Record-Player!
It contains an 80W Class D amplifier combined with an 80W loudspeaker (the original loudspeaker was 1W!). Digital filtering produces a response curve tending towards high-fidelity.
Find more information about digital filtering and the sound of our units.
Particular attention has been paid to the bass: it is dynamic (its level is increased at low volume for a harmonious rendering when muted) and a switch activates the Superbass function to give the bass more weight according to taste and the type of music listened to.
The device also features noise filters to suppress electronic noise from the WIFI card and electrical activity in the room.
This device can be used as a "simple" record player with a very good sound: turn it on, start the rotation of the turntable, place the sapphire on your vinyl record and enjoy the music.
Flip the back switch and turn it into a WIFI and Bluetooth connected speaker. You'll be able to use your phone or tablet to play your playlists, your favorite music platform and any radio or web radio stations and their podcasts.

Moreover, in this mode, the signal of the turntable is digitized and transmitted to the WIFI module. Our system allows you to broadcast your vinyl records to other WIFI speakers in a synchronous way! This makes this antique one of the most advanced record players in the world (more information below: multiroom systems).
The device is also equipped with a Bluetooth connectivity to broadcast tracks stored on your phone (MP3 ...) or sound directly from the Internet (Youtube ...).
Vinyl Turntable
The turntable is a completely rebuilt Radiohm, including the motor. The needle, cartridge and drive wheel are new. It can play 33, 45 and 78 rpm records, and accepts all sizes up to the 12 1/4" 78 rpm, the largest ever made. The turntables of this time were designed to play mono and stereo records, so the swivel cartridge contains two suitable needles, enabling playback of modern recordings.

History of the radio
Reela manufactured radios from 1942 to the 1980s. Their innovative design, rooted in the Art Deco movement, quickly allowed the company to grow to occupy an important place in France and in North Africa. Their first factory was located on Rue des Pyrenees in Paris, it moved to the 18th arrondissement in 1950 and other factories were opened, while Reela, in addition to its own models of radios and record players, manufactured radios for other brands. In the late 1950s, Reela diversified into television and car radio models, and the venture continued until the 1980s.
This 1955 model is the first version of the Rhythm, made in limited numbers and extraordinarily hard to find with its side lamps intact.
