Hi-Fi Turntable

A Hi-Fi Turntable is a device used to play vinyl records. It consists of a rotating platter, a tonearm, and a cartridge. The platter is connected to a motor, which rotates the platter at a constant speed. The tonearm is connected to the platter and holds the cartridge, which is what reads the grooves in the record. The cartridge converts the mechanical vibrations of the record into electrical signals, which are then amplified and sent to speakers.
