Do you like vinyl, but don’t have room for an amplifier and speakers? SpinBase 2 could be the solution


  • Combines an amplifier and speaker system for turntables
  • High-pass filter for adding a subwoofer
  • Bluetooth and optional Wi-Fi streaming

Sometimes the trick to creating a successful product is to think the unthinkable, or at least think the highly unusual. And that’s exactly what Andover Audio did with the SpinBase, which answered the question: “what like a soundbar, but for vinyl?” And now there is a new and improved version.

The SpinBase 2 is designed to fit under your turntable, and while Andover is happy to sell you its own SpinDeck 2, it’s designed to work with any turntable. It’s an amplifier and a speaker system in one device, and it’s designed to produce a fairly wide sound through its 270-degree sound system. It won’t be as wide as a standard set of the best stereo speakers properly spaced, but like the best soundbars, it’s aimed at people for whom space is at a premium.

One of the main differences between this unit and all-in-one turntables is what Andover calls IsoGroove, which he says reduces speaker vibration and reduces feedback. That should mean a louder sound without your tone arm moving back and forth.
