More about our Bridgit Box...
Intro by designer Bob Amos of Tutti Audio
Dansettes are the most sought after portable record players of their generation. Endearing mid-century styling, vibrant hues and a unique warm sound spoil the senses of many, evoking memories like no other player of its generation. Further fuelled by a strong resurgence in the popularity of vinyl, We are experiencing a Dansette revival on a dramatic scale.
The hitherto untried idea of interfacing these vintage gems to the modernity of Hi-Fi and wireless connectivity seemed to me a natural progression. I wanted a simple solution, not wanting to detract in any way from their evocative sound and charm.
Bridgit Box COMPACT is an exciting plug and play add-on that radically extends the enjoyment, versatility and usefulness of your cherished Dansette without altering its inherent performance characteristics. The outcome has exceeded my wildest expectations. Not withstanding the practical benefits, it’s hard to convey in words alone the performance uplift attainable. Put simply, it just has to be heard.
How it works...
Meet clever clogs Bridgit …
The inherently high output impedance and signal voltages of crystal and ceramic pick-up cartridges are completely different from the magnetic devices used in modern day turntable equipment. They are however, essential to drive the fairly simple single and two stage, low power valve amplifier designs found in vintage record players, including Dansettes.
Whilst it’s fairly straightforward to mix and match modern day separates using wired or wireless connectivity, up to now it’s not been possible to hook your Dansette up in this manner.
Bridgit Box overcomes this problem by providing a suitable interface buffer to the modern electronics world, opening up a whole range of extended listening pleasures and options.
When desired, you can now stream your Dansette to any wireless Bluetooth™ loudspeaker or music system for superb quality sound and much greater volume levels.
Similarly, the Bridgit Box COMPACT also provides a suitable line-out interface for wired connection to your HiFi amplifier or music system with equal benefits.
The Bridgit Box COMPACT simply connects via the tape socket available on certain Dansette models. Models without a tape facility require a simple modification.
