Kanto OBI3 Turntable + Victrola Tempo Powered Bookshelf Speaker System
Overview
The Kanto OBI3 + Victrola Tempo system brings together two straightforward components to create an easy entry into vinyl and stereo listening. It is designed for anyone who wants the separation and flexibility of a turntable and dedicated stereo speakers without adding a separate amplifier, receiver or phono stage.
At the source is the Kanto OBI3 turntable. Its built-in phono preamp allows a direct line-level connection to powered speakers. The OBI3 supports 33⅓ and 45 RPM records and comes fitted with an Audio-Technica AT3600L cartridge. Auto stop adds useful everyday convenience, while Bluetooth output provides another option for compatible wireless audio products.
The Victrola Tempo powered bookshelf speakers complete the system. Amplification is built into the primary speaker, so there is no need for an external amplifier. The pair delivers 80 watts RMS and accepts the OBI3 directly through its stereo RCA input. Bluetooth 5.4 also provides simple wireless playback from compatible phones, tablets and other devices.
Setting the system up is deliberately uncomplicated. Connect the OBI3 at line level to the Tempo’s RCA input and you have a complete two-channel vinyl system. The Tempo also provides optical, USB-C and 3.5 mm inputs for other compatible sources. A subwoofer output gives the system a straightforward expansion path if you want to add more low-frequency extension later.
From a Groove Central perspective, this Curated Solution is about getting the fundamentals right without making an entry-level system unnecessarily complicated. You get a dedicated turntable, a genuine pair of powered stereo speakers and enough connectivity to make the system useful beyond vinyl. With a normal combined retail price of $848.95, the complete Black system is now $499 — a saving of $349.95. It provides a simple starting point for a bedroom, apartment, home office or smaller living space. This package price applies to Black units only while allocated stock lasts.
