The PARON II integrated vinyl record player redefines the modern vinyl listening experience by seamlessly combining outstanding audio performance with refined aesthetics. More than just a playback device, it stands as a stylish tribute to retro music culture, resonating deeply with the lifestyle aspirations of contemporary young generation.

Impressive in its audio performance, the PARON II boasts a full-range sound field audio system, combining a 2-inch 10W tweeter with a 2.5-inch 14W woofer to deliver richly layered, detailed Hi-Fi sound. Another advanced highlight is the newly developed S5 system, which integrates a full-aluminum platter, a carbon fiber tonearm, and an AT3600L moving-magnet cartridge. These high-quality components work together, significantly improving tracking accuracy and audio fidelity. Further enhancing sound quality is a specially designed three-point suspension system, inspired by automotive shock absorption principles. This system uses rubber dampers to absorb both internal and external micro-vibrations, effectively reducing noise and playback errors. As a result, the PARON II offers greater stability and purer, more immersive sound reproduction.

Not only does the PARON II deliver outstanding performance, but it also features an elegant design. Its clean, minimalist silhouette and natural walnut finish strike a perfect balance between vintage charm and contemporary simplicity, making it a versatile fit for diverse interior styles. Moreover, the streamlined front grille adds a distinctive visual element and improves acoustic transparency, optimizing sound dispersion for a more immersive auditory experience. This is where functionality and aesthetics come together thoughtfully.

Special attention is also given to user interaction. Rotary knobs enables simple control over Bluetooth connectivity, rotational speed, tone settings, power on/off, and volume—all while preserving a refined retro style that enhances the experience of playing vinyl records. The play/pause function is controlled by a square button, deliberately distinct from the rotary controls for clear, intuitive operation. This well-thought-out layout ensures that even first-time users can operate the device confidently, without referring to a manual.
