Ikea launches record player collab with Swedish House Mafia, and we’re into it

0

Ikea is all set to join the vinyl revival. The flat-pack furniture maker just launched a new record player as part of a collaboration with electronic music stars Swedish House Mafia.

Unveiled at 2022 Milan Design Week, the turntable forms part of a new collection called OBEGRÄNSAD that also includes a desk for music production plus an armchair, with all three products sharing a sleek black aesthetic.

There’s little in the way of technical details so far available for the record player, so it’s hard to say if it’ll challenge the best turntables our there, but from the promo shots released so far of the striking minimalist box design, it looks far removed from the flimsy excuses for decks you tend to associate with a mainstream retailer.

While not mentioned in Ikea’s press release, eagle-eyed readers may have noticed Audio-Technica’s logo on the stylus, which reassuringly suggests this deck could be a contender.
