There’s just something about the warm voice of a vinyl record.

For the first time in 25 times, record player manufacturer Crosley has decided to go retro and bring back the classic vinyl jukebox musician, but with a modern twist. Its CR1209A full-sized Rocket Vinyl Jukebox will be the only jukebox in production.

Its stylish yet classic-looking jukebox is decked out in shimmering amber and chrome with a clear glass top over the record changer and player, so that users can see the rotating wheel of vinyl registers after making their selection. The machine will comprise 70 7-inch accounts for a total of 140 separate tunes.

Users can make their selection using classic numbered blood-red buttons, or via remote control. The jukebox can also be placed in shuffle mode, and will cycle through records until told otherwise.

If you don’t have a enough 7-inch evidences to fill up the machine or “ve got to hear” a specific chant, the jukebox are also welcome to connect to your machine via Bluetooth and auxiliary input enables you to tap into the jukebox’s speakers.

The front panel features two mid orators, two tweeters and one 12 -inch twin cone bass speaker. The jukebox Crosely depicted off at CES was decked out with reaches, and it gave the warm and powerful sound you’d expect from a vinyl evidence through a nice amp and speakers.

But, it’s going to cost you. The jukebox has a recommended retail price of $11,995. And it also won’t is very easy getting one. Crosley plans to have 16 units ready to ship by April or May of this year, so step in line, rich vinyl lovers.

Because most people own 33 13 rpm accounts instead of 45 s, Crosley has plans to make another jukebox to accommodate those larger accounts in the future.

While streaming music has been taking over the music industry in recent years, vinyl marketings have made a healthy comeback. In April Fortune reported that vinyl record marketingswere at a 28 -year high. UK vinyl marketings reached grew 53 percentage in 2016 over the previous year.
