As Vinyl is doing pretty well and some people even say that “ …Is killing mp3 industry “ we had being long looking to expand our TT offer. But we didn’t want to just add another brand. The point was to some some artisan creation. Innovative and refreshing, not the same old OEM wooden blocks build. Finally hard work and patience had been rewarded and we became UK distributor for fantastic Pre – Audio Turntables from Poland.
Not only is company offering entire range of decks covering different price levels, but also they are all unique and unconventional. The common denominator for all of them is the fact that they are all equipped with tangential tone-arrms,but when it comes to details it becomes clear that all of them are one off designs developed and executed by Mr. Daniel Prendecki, main brain behind the brand and the CEO of the company. Nothing had been copied here from others and whole collection had been created from the scratch. More of that ,thanks to Mr. Prendecki skills lots had been improved when other failed previously, as with his skills and sharp mind things are made to progress and last forever.
Entire range sports 5 models with plinths varieties made of wood, acrylic & granite. All are plug and play, being supplied with choice of stock cartridges from like Benz-Micro, Audiotechnika and Ortofon. Those models which are build on Air bearing concept are supplied with the dedicated pumps belonging to the set. So it is one stop show by choice and we really mean it. On the top of excellent mechanics skills responsible for this creation comes well matured design of RIAA phono stage as well. Advanced design’s using 6 Tesla valves(from old good stock) and employs dedicated power supply – encased separately. Please have a look at the Tangential family of Pre Audio turntables and feel free to explore this new land.
We have in offer classic record players but since the begining we are specializes in linear record playes with air bearing tonearms. Three most popular series of truntables are models with aribearing tonearm:
- DE-18 – Simple model with air bearing, the trolley with tonearm is separated from the guide with an air cushion. Air comes out of the guide from the holes at the top.
- ASP-15 – Model with swivel arm that gives comfort when we need to change the record. Air goes directly to the trolley with a flexible silicone hose
- GL11 – The highest models. The guide is supported in two places, which gives maximum rigidity.
Often we have questions: “I like my record player but I would like to change the arm, I see your construction works much better, can I buy only the arm”. Yes it is possibe, we just have to know that the price of the arm is about 70% of the record player and often we have to make special base to fit on a different construction (usually for free). It is possible to buy arms from series BG-00, DE-18 and ASP-15
Turntables
Classic conventional pivoting tonearm moves freely, it is "pulled" by the stylus across the record. Because of the move that it makes conventional tonearms have tracking distortions. Record players with linear/tangential tonearms have zero tracking distortion. The tonearm positions the cartridge at the same 90 degree angle at which the record were cut. In the past meany great constructions of record players with linear tonearm were complicated and heavy. In order for the linear tonearm to move, it was/is necessary that the arm is controlled by electric motors. This motors are pushing the arm across the record but the mechanical complexity of this models gives more points for failure. All models with linear tracking tonearm in Pre-audio constructions have low mass and simple construction. That allowed like in conventional pivoting tonearms that the tonearm is "pulled" by the stylus across the record.
