Acoustic Signature Ascona NEO

Acoustic Signature

The 35-kilogram Typhoon NEO is pushing the boundaries of the massive, chassis-less vinyl turntable concept with its multi-layered metal chassis. Its standout feature lies in its three motors, which ensure exceptionally stable rotation of the support disk. The belt drive operates through a sub-disk (massive pulley) onto which the main disk (flywheel) is mounted.
The second-level digital control system, AVC Level 2, synchronizes the motors and automatically fine-tunes their operational parameters in real-time to eliminate any potential vibrations.
This turntable is designed to accommodate up to three tonearms with standardized lengths of either 9 or 12 inches.
