The holidays are upon us, and deals, specifically on gadgets and electronics, are aplenty. For example, it’s the best time of the year to buy noise-canceling headphones. Almost every Sonos speaker and soundbar is more affordable than ever, and AirPods Pro are at an all-time low price.
If you’re in the market for a turntable, deals are admittedly more scarce — that’s not to say they don’t exist, however. We’ve done some digging and below you’ll find the best Black Friday deals on turntables that are live right now.
