modern record console
Starting at $29,995
The flagship of the Symbol line, the Modern Record Console pays homage to “all-in-one” console hifi’s of the 1950’s, an idea whose time, we believe, has come around again.
Analog electronics paired with digital technology and the best craftsmanship available, this is the new standard. The Modern Record Player Console will undoubtedly become a focal point of any interior. Seamlessly transition between vinyl records and Sonos or Bluetooth streaming. 6.5” full-range drivers and a 300w subwoofer are powered by a fully-custom, hand-built, tube amplifier and housed in an American Black Walnut cabinet and stainless steel base.
Hand-Built Tube Amplifier
This fully-custom, hand-built vacuum tube amplifier provides a fully analog signal path, with the rich musical sound of tubes that is still sought after by audiophiles. Enjoy the warm glow of the tubes, and the action of the active VU meters.
Full-Range Alnico Drivers
Two 6.5″ full range drivers deliver a perfect point source, phase, and time accurate signal throughout their operating range thanks to their lack of a crossover. The result: an extremely clear and uncolored sound that brings the musicians into your listening room.
300W 8″ Powered Subwoofer
Concealed in the stainless steel pedestal is a 300-watt powered 8″ subwoofer with dedicated gain, phase, and frequency controls. The hidden subwoofer offers deep bass response to compliment the warm, rich sound from the full range speakers.
Integrated Turntable
A unique, three-phase suspension system entirely isolates the turntable from the console cabinet allowing for the highest fidelity signal possible from the Clearaudio turntable without interruption from the on-board speakers.
Wireless Streaming
Stream high-fidelity digital music to the Modern Record Console from a variety of wireless technologies including AirPlay, Sonos, and Bluetooth.
Stainless Steel Base
The base is crafted from precision cut 1/4″ stainless steel plates, TIG welded, and finished with a hand applied patinated coating.
Hand Selected Walnut
The Modern Record Player Console is constructed from specially selected 14ft American Black Walnut boards allowing the grain to fully wrap around the console uninterrupted. Start to finish, each cabinet is painstakingly crafted by a single craftsman using time honored techniques totaling 100 hours of work.
Patinated Solid Brass Hardware
Each piece of hardware is machined from solid brass and carefully patinated by hand before being installed.
