Pro-Ject’s Elvis themed turntable and We Are Rewind’s cassette player for The King mean I’ll listen My Way
- How Great Thou Art: it is 90 years since the birth of Elvis Aaron Presley
- Pro-Ject’s Elvis-inspired T2 turntable features dimmable LED lighting
- We Are Rewind’s cassette player proves there’s Elvis for Everyone
An American Trilogy? Not quite, but it is a lovely duo from two respected names in analog audio – and I could have Such a Night with either of these products in honor of what would be Elvis Presley’s 90th birthday, I’d probably end up singing my own rendition of Viva Las Vegas to my long-suffering neighbors.
Pledging My Love straight from the off, Audio-Technica’s limited-edition design is one I Can’t Help Falling in Love with. It’s based on the turntable specialist’s acclaimed T2 turntable, but features a CNC-machined plinth with integrated, dimmable LED lighting to create the iconic ‘ELVIS’ logo, a sign made of light bulbs featured in the live performance of If I Can Dream during the ’68 Comeback Special.
Beneath its glowing exterior lies a precision 9-inch aluminium tonearm, adjustable spring-based anti-skating system, and a factory-fitted Sumiko Rainier cartridge. There’s also a 10mm, 1.7kg glass platter and if you’ve got some older presses, That’s All Right now mama, any way you do – because A-T’s electronically regulated motor should mean simple switching between 33 and 45 RPM.
Pricing? Of course: it’s available now, priced £1,199 / €1,399, which would make it around $1,590 or AU$2,465, where sold.
I can’t afford it right now, but until I can it’ll be Always on My Mind…
A little less conversation? You need an Elvis cassette player Walkman
I’ve spent a lot of time with FiiO’s modern answer to the Sony Walkman and I have to say, Don’t Be Cruel before you try We Are Rewind’s version – I got no Trouble whatsoever with the warm magnetic hiss of cassette tape to get me All Shook Up in the music.
Also, we loved the look of We Are Rewind’s WE-001 cassette player earlier in the year, and it is upon this model that the new limited-edition WE ARE REWIND x Elvis Presley Box Set is built.
Why am I calling it a ‘box set’? Well, I Got Lucky and heard that only 1,957 units are being released worldwide (a tribute to the original release year of Elvis’ Christmas Album), and that your purchase includes the specially designed portable cassette player plus an exclusive reissue of Elvis’ Christmas Album on cassette.
And just like Elvis knew that we can’t go on together with Suspicious Minds, We Are Rewind’s engineers knew they’d have to put some new tech in a Walkman to make it viable in 2025 – which is why you’ll find a rechargeable battery good for up to 12 hours under the hood, as well as Bluetooth 5.1 connectivity for wireless listening via earbuds, headphones, speakers and soundbars.
Feeling like this lovely little player has kinda Stuck on You? Well, it’s available exclusively online, with global pre-orders opening today (October 15, 2025) and it’ll set you back $199 / €179 which is around £150 or AU$309, or thereabouts.
Again, only 1,957 are being made, so if you want yours It’s Now or Never – and truly I doubt anyone who orders theirs will be writing Return to Sender on the box…
