Kanto OBI3 G2 Bluetooth Turntable with Phono Preamp
Bring the warmth and character of vinyl into a modern listening system with the Kanto OBI3 G2 Bluetooth turntable. Its belt-drive motor uses an integrated speed sensor to continuously monitor playback and maintain stable, accurate rotation at 33-1/3 or 45 RPM. A substantial engineered-wood plinth and weighted aluminum platter provide a stable foundation, while the J-style aluminum tonearm, adjustable counterweight, and anti-skate control support precise cartridge tracking. The preinstalled Audio-Technica AT3600L cartridge delivers smooth, balanced performance without requiring a separate cartridge purchase. Bluetooth 5.3 provides convenient wireless playback through compatible speakers, while the RCA output and selectable built-in phono preamp support traditional wired audio systems. A manual cue lever with cue-activated start, automatic stop, and ±10% pitch control complete this flexible and approachable vinyl setup.

- Maintaining accurate playback speed: The sensor-controlled belt-drive system continuously monitors the motor for stable 33-1/3 and 45 RPM playback.
- Connecting to modern audio systems: Bluetooth 5.3 makes it easy to play records through compatible wireless speakers.
- Simplifying wired setup: The selectable built-in phono preamp supports direct RCA connection to a wide range of powered speakers and audio components.
- Providing precise cartridge adjustment: An adjustable counterweight and anti-skate control help optimize tracking and reduce unwanted skipping.
- Exploring different playback styles: The ±10% pitch control lets listeners adjust tempo and tonal character.
- Delivering a complete vinyl experience: A weighted aluminum platter, J-style aluminum tonearm, Audio-Technica cartridge, cue lever, dustcover, felt mat, and 45 RPM adapter provide a capable out-of-box setup.
