Welcome to the home of the ELP Laser Turntable!

Dear Analog Music Lovers,

Since 1989, ELP of Japan has been the sole producer of the Laser Turntable (LT). The LT lets music lovers around the world enjoy their vinyl record collections while eliminating the damage that comes with traditional turntable needles. No needle, no wear!

Due to different philosophies and policies, companies in the USA and Japan refused to pursue laser technology because:

  • In the 1980s, we entered the era of Compact Discs, which diluted interest in vinyl records
  • It was difficult to reduce the production costs of laser technology
ELP has been working exclusively on the Laser Turntable to revitalize the music captured on vinyl records. From the beginning we have overcome several obstacles, including:
  • Product Development
  • Manufacturing and Product Reliability Improvement
  • Marketing and Sales, in spite of the onset of the "CD generation"

It would be our pleasure to send you more information and a sample CD. While a CD cannot provide the true sound quality of analog music on the Laser Turntable, you will hear the clear difference between the LT and a conventional needle turntable. You will receive literature and a demo CD via airmail direct from ELP of Japan.

Whether you are a serious collector or a vinyl record enthusiast, the ELP Laser Turntable is a dream come true!
