Montegiro, a company out of Germany, has dropped the most luxurious turntable we’ve seen to date: the Lusso. While it costs $47K, as much as a nice car, the Lusso features an extremely innovative design composed of three height-adjustable connected cones made from alternate layers of aluminum and black acrylic. A newly developed, ultra precise synchronous motor is suspended in one of the cones, while another supports the standard 10″ Da Vinci Nobile carbon fiber arm and Montegiro MG1 titanium cartridge. The central inverted cone supports the record. A special version of the Lusso is also available, which has a fourth cone supporting a second 9″ SME 5009 tonearm.

Reynold Rodriquez Turns the Tables on DJ Booth Design

May 7th, 2008 by BallerHouse

Industrial designer Reynold Rodriquez’s DJ tables are so fresh they’ll give you an excuse to make your DJ gear a permanent display item in your home. Made from composite wood and finished in a variety of exotic wood veneers, the DJ tables hold two turntables and a mixer, and the tables conceal almost all exposed wiring.

Like BornRich, our favorite Reynold Rodriquez table of the four on sale at SpaceTek is the 2.1 DJ Table pictured above, which retails for $3,120. That said, we’re a fan of all of Rodriguez’s high-style DJ tables, and we’ve pictured the other three in the thumbs below. Prices range from $600 for a floating CDJ unit (thumb 1) up to $3,875 for the 3.1 DJ Table (thumb 3). The 00DJ Table in thumb 2 sells for $2,970. No matter which one you choose, you can be confident that you’re spinning on one of the best looking DJ consoles on the market.
