Subscribe to our newsletter Majority unveils D50X bookshelf speakers... ... and Auto turntable Both affordable, colorful, and here in time for Record Store Day If the high cost of a vinyl-ready Hi-Fi puts you off the hobby, then Majority's new release could change your mind (as can our audio editor's four-strong roundup of two-product wireless vinyl setups ), and it's here right in time for Record Store Day on April 18.

The brand has unveiled two new offerings, which are on sale right now from various UK retailers (US and AU availability TBC, but unlikely). First up, there's the Majority D50X, a pair of bookshelf speakers which come in red, green, white or black. They output at 60W with a range of connection options, and go for 69.95 (about $100 / AU$140).

Then there's the Majority Auto, an automatic Bluetooth turntable which is priced at 129.95. It has a built-in phono pre-amp, automatic tonearm and belt drive, and outputs in aux and line-out as well as Bluetooth. Sounds like perfect RSD prep to me

As you can tell from the price, neither of these devices are aimed at the highly fussy audiophile for whom money is no obstacle, especially since Bluetooth is the name of the game. But they're an affordable way for the average buyer to get an easy-to-use vinyl set-up. Record Store Day inbound Record Store Day is an institution in the UK, when indie record stores around the UK and Ireland team up to offer promotions to celebrate the vinyl format.

This year, it falls on April 18, and the organizers have already shared a
list of the exclusive releases being sold on the day. Get daily insight, inspiration and deals in your inbox Sign up for breaking news, reviews, opinion, top tech deals, and more.

Naturally, people who don't own a turntable are left out of the celebrations, and with many of the best record players costing a pretty penny (not to mention decent speakers costing more), people who don't have high budgets might feel left out.

Luckily, there are some budget turntables available, and this new Majority bundle will be a perfect way to get in on the Record Store Day fun without breaking the bank. The best turntables for all budgets Our top picks, based
