CES 2024: Victrola has thrown its hat into the CES 2024 ring, unveiling the highest-end instalment to their Works with Sonos turntable range.

The Stream Sapphire turntable is set to be the brand’s most impressive turntable yet, with the ability to support 24-bit/48kHz lossless FLAC audio. The turntable promises to sound far better than its predecessors – and you’d expect so, given its price-tag of $1,499 is more than the $800 Stream Carbon and the $599 Stream Onyx combined.
