A Statement Piece for Vinyl Lovers

The Audio-Technica Hotaru is a limited-edition turntable that blurs the line between high-end audio equipment and interactive art.

Designed for collectors and vinyl enthusiasts, it combines premium analog playback with a visually striking floating design that transforms listening sessions into immersive, multi-sensory experiences. With only 1,000 units produced, the Hotaru stands among the company’s most exclusive creations.

Floating Innovation

At the heart of the Hotaru is its magnetically levitating upper chassis, which appears to float above the base while helping isolate the record player from unwanted vibrations. Complementing the dramatic design is an integrated four-speaker audio system and a music-reactive lighting array featuring 20 color palettes and multiple display modes.

A premium Audio-Technica MicroLine cartridge comes pre-installed, allowing owners to enjoy high-quality analog playback immediately without additional setup.

Refined Inside and Out

The Hotaru supports both 33⅓ and 45 RPM records through a precision belt-drive system powered by a DC servo motor. Stereo RCA outputs and a dedicated subwoofer connection allow integration with external audio systems, while the aluminum base and solid brass feet reinforce its premium construction and long-term durability.
