The idea inherent in the very existence of\u00a0Acoustic Signature<\/b>\u00a0is purely technocratic – the maximum engineering and technical perfection of such a complex mechanical product as <\/u>turntable<\/strong>…\u00a0Acoustic Signature<\/b>\u00a0technical innovations\u00a0do not negate the recognition of buyers, the vast majority of whom are guided by musical results.\u00a0With 25 years of experience in analog reproduction, the firm can be proud of industry-recognized technical solutions that truly improve both the quantitative and qualitative parameters of its turntables.<\/p>\n

\"Acoustic<\/p>\n

Among these technical advances are the control of body resonances with\u00a0contstrained layer damping<\/i>\u00a0, vibration dampers for the backing disc (\u00a0Silenser<\/i>\u00a0) and the maintenance-\u00a0free Tidorfolon<\/b>\u00a0main bearing\u00a0.\u00a0Acoustic Signature was<\/b>\u00a0one of the first in the industry to develop digital controllers for controlling the speed of rotation of the disk and use powerful specialized power supplies for them.<\/p>\n

A number of recent studies have allowed the company’s engineers to plan a large-scale upgrade of the entire line of turntables, taking into account new original developments in both technology and materials.\u00a0This update took on new directions in the course of implementation and began to be seen as extraordinarily large-scale.\u00a0To underscore the importance of the integral upgrade, dubbed\u00a0NEO<\/b>\u00a0, a team of industrial designers was brought in to refurbish the aesthetics of the turntables.\u00a0During the selection of technologies, an expanded group of experts were involved, who participated in listening and discussing the best direction of development in terms of sound quality.<\/p>\n

As a result, by the end of 2020, there was a major update of the\u00a0Acoustic Signature<\/b>\u00a0–\u00a0NEO<\/b>\u00a0turntable and arm range\u00a0.\u00a0It covers new materials for miniature bearings for all tonearms, new alloys for turntable body parts, and upgrades to the circuitry of the motor controller and its power supply.<\/p>\n

The key technical solutions of Neo are as follows:<\/b><\/p>\n

AVC<\/strong>\u00a0(\u00a0Anti-Vibration Control<\/i>\u00a0) is an electronic system for correcting self-parasitic vibrations in AC synchronous motors in the platter drive.<\/p>\n

DTD<\/strong>\u00a0(\u00a0DuraTurn Diamond<\/i>\u00a0) – development of the\u00a0Tidorfolon\u00a0main bearing\u00a0concept\u00a0(refined since 1997).\u00a0Due to the use in the bearing of a vacuum-hardened polished shaft with laser coating and special inserts of increased porosity, the coefficient of friction is reduced by 60%.<\/p>\n

Acoustic Signature NEO’s\u00a0technical innovations\u00a0make it possible to announce new advances in the quality of analog vinyl music reproduction, which the company is pleased to present to vinyl lovers in 2021.<\/p>\n

The new line includes 9 models of turntables with prices\u00a0ranging from 4,200 to 178,000 euros\u00a0.\u00a0The new\u00a0NEO\u00a0tonearms are\u00a0available in the price range\u00a0from\u00a0approximately\u00a01,500 to 8,000 euros\u00a0.<\/p>\n
