One of the scariest considerations for new vinyl listeners is that the best turntables are only the first of many expensive purchases you're probably going to have to make. Unless you buy a deck with a built-in speaker, you're going to have to shell out for a pretty costly and space-hogging hi-fi set-up, involving amps and speakers, to hear your tunes.
These are two problems which audio company Victrola has set its sights on fixing, with a new speaker, released at CES 2026. This is the Victrola Soundstage, a soundbase which is due to go on sale in summer 2026 for $349.99 (roughly £260, AU$500, regional availability TBC).
