Check out this bit of vintage portable audio, yeah CG is all about tech news but this is too cool. The Audio Technica AT-727 Sound Burger is a clamp-like 8″ record player which was apparently developed in response to Sony’s popular Walkman cassette player. The design is pretty neat as the majority of the record is free spinning outside of the player, but don’t expect this to work in your pocket. Or on the train. Or anywhere without a completely stable surface really. It’s cool to see how far we’ve come in terms of technology but really, no cover flow or podcast directory would render this thing pretty useless.

thanks…
any one got one of these for sale but not at silly price
I have for sell, silver colour and never used, brand new with box, headphones, etc but in this condition it is not cheap.
how much would you be looking to sell for
Hi, not less than 250 euros + shipping, if bank tranfer, if paypal then adding paypal fees. The last two that I sold at this price were sold in 10 minutes. Take note that this is a never used one, even with the original batteries. Almost impossible to find in this condition.
Paloma, do you still have your burger? Also, how can I get in contact with you if you do? Thanks!
my email is: pagarcia@arrakis.es
Hey, if only they made this thing linear tracking, maybe you wouldn’t need a stable surface to use it (eg. play when walking around).
:-)
