A heavyweight hybrid turntable built for DJs, loved by vinyl fans, and now part of the LmLw Radio family.

If you’re into vinyl, DJ gear, or just good music vibes, there’s a good chance you’ve heard of the Reloop RP-8000 MK2. It’s been on the market since 2019, earning respect as one of the most advanced hybrid turntables out there.

But here’s the news: it’s brand new to LmLw Radio, and that means to you, our music and wine family. We’ve brought it into our gear lineup, and it feels like it was made for us.

✨ 4 Standout Features You’ll Love

Performance Pads on a Turntable Eight RGB pads right on the deck. Trigger cues, loops, rolls—without reaching for your laptop.
Platter Play (Turn the Platter into an Instrument)Control platter speed with the pads to create melodies, basslines, or risers. It’s clever and fun.
Built Like a Tank Heavy-duty build, quartz-locked stability, shock-absorbing feet, and a scratch-resistant finish.💡 Fun fact: the deck weighs about 11.8 kg (26 lbs) solid enough to stay planted no matter what.
Analog Soul + Digital Control Play real vinyl with phono output, or go hybrid with USB/MIDI + DVS software. No compromises.

🎧 How It Fits into LmLw Radio

At LmLw Radio, we’re spinning it the classic way vinyl sessions full of jazz, soul, and deep crate cuts. The torque makes cueing tight, the platter weight keeps everything smooth, and the isolation gives us crystal-clean sound on air.

When we feel playful, the pads and performance features let us loop or drop samples live. It’s reliable, flexible, and feels right at home in our broadcast chain.

🔥 DJs: Here’s What You Can Do Beyond “Just Spinning”

Sound you can trust: heavy build + precise motor = honest playback.
Durability: built for booths, which means in your home it’ll last for years.
Ease of use: simple controls make it approachable for new collectors.
Future-proof: if you ever want to digitize, record, or dabble in DJing, you’re ready.

🏆 The Bottom Line

The Reloop RP-8000 MK2 isn’t new to the DJ world, but it’s new to us and we think it’s perfect for our community. With its weight, durability, and flexibility, it’s a turntable you can grow with, whether you’re a DJ, a music selector, or just building your hi-fi listening setup.
