Vinyl Streamer

Vinyl Streamer

Record once. Play forever.

A hand-built vinyl jukebox that learns your records, streams them around the house, and keeps the grooves safe on the shelf.

Drop the needle once. After that, it’s a jukebox.

Capture from your turntable, identify the album with local fingerprints, save lossless FLACs, then play from the touchscreen or your phone to AirPlay and Bluetooth speakers.

Prebuilt by the person who built it

Low-volume, built and burn-in tested by me. Open source stays free. The paid option is time, assembly, testing, and a working appliance that shows up ready to plug in.

What’s in the Studio build

A listening-room appliance, not a pile of spare cables. The reference hardware is chosen for clean capture, reliable storage, and a touchscreen that feels like furniture.

Compute & audio

Raspberry Pi 5 with a HiFiBerry DAC2 ADC Pro for line-level vinyl capture and local playback.

Storage & display

NVMe storage for your FLAC library, plus a 10.1" touchscreen running the jukebox UI in kiosk mode.

Your room

Works with a turntable that has line-level output (or a phono preamp), and AirPlay or Bluetooth speakers you already own.
