AVID HiFi’s Relveo is an $11,000 turntable that is “a powerful statement piece for the modern music lover”Analogue hi-fi manufacturer AVID has launched its first turntable in 12 years, in honour of its 30th anniversary.
The turntable, named Relveo, is described as “the brainchild of AVID’s founder/owner Conrad Mas”. In honour of the brand’s anniversary celebration, the turntable itself draws from three decades of analogue design innovation.READ MORE: Sony WH-1000XM6 review: Excellent noise cancelling and sound — but missing one key feature
According to AVID, Relveo marks a “significant evolution” for the company, and introduces a new suspension system, reimagined platter, and advanced external power supply. This new suspension system provides isolation and stability while also simplifying setup.
The Relveo ships with AVID’s multi-award-winning Altus V2 tonearm, which costs £1,650 itself. It features micron-tolerance bearings and AVID’s recently introduced unique dual adjustable bias compensation system, which “extracts every nuance from vinyl collections”. If you’d prefer, the Relveo can also be purchased bare for existing tonearm owners.View this post on Instagram
A post shared by AVID HIFI – Highend Audio (@avidhifi)
Conrad Mas, founder/owner and CEO of AVID says, “The new Relveo embodies everything AVID stands for: engineering without compromise, enduring beauty, and a profound connection to music. It distils three decades of breakthrough technologies into a single, powerful statement piece for the modern music lover.”
In other turntable-adjacent news, independent artists can now get their music pressed onto vinyl thanks to a new partnership between SoundCloud and elasticStage. The new initiative means Artist Pro users can utilise a print-on-demand service, so all the manufacturing, selling, and shipping will be taken care of, and creators simply get paid for every sale.
The Relveo with the Altus V2 tonearm is priced at £6,900/$10,995, but costs £5,500/$8,995 when purchased bare. Find out more via AVID HiFi.

The WiFi-enabled IoT fad, while still upon us (no, my coffee scale doesn’t need to be on the network, dammit!) has begun to give way to low-power protocols actually designed for this kind of communication, such as ZigBee, and more recently, Thread. The downside of these new systems, however, is that they can be a bit more difficult in which to dabble. If you want to see just why your WiFi-enabled toaster uploads 100 MB of data per day to some server, you can capture some network traffic on your laptop without any specialized hardware. These low-power protocols can feel a bit more opaque, but that’s easily remedied with a dev board. For a couple of dollars, you can buy Thread radio that, with some additional hacking, acts as a portal between this previously-arcane protocol and your laptop — or, as [András Tevesz] has shown us, your Flipper Zero.
He’s published a wonderful three-part guide detailing how to mod one such $10 radio to communicate with the Flipper via its GPIO pins, set up a toolchain, build the firmware, and start experimenting. The guide even gets into the nitty-gritty of how data is handled transmitted and investigates potential attack vectors (less worrying for your Thread-enabled light bulb, very worrying for your smart door lock). This project is a fantastic way to prototype new sensors, build complicated systems using the Flipper as a bridge, or even just gain some insight into how the devices in your smart home operate.
In 2025, it’s easier than ever to get started with home automation — whether you cook up a solution yourself, or opt for a stable, off-the-shelf (but still hackable) solution like HomeAssistant (or even Minecraft?). Regardless of the path you choose, you’ll likely wind up with devices on the Thread network that you now have the tools to hack.Pulling at Threads With the Flipper Zero
