BALANCE TURNTABLE
Brinkmann’s heaviest turntable keeps on running and running and running... with legendary quietness. Since its introduction in 1985, the »Balance« combines timeless beauty, highest sound quality and perfect build quality. The basic design has remained the same, but in the best Brinkmann tradition, the turntable has seen continuous evolution and sonic optimizations.
RONT
At first blush, it seems a crazy idea to use vacuum tubes for a low-voltage turntable power supply. So why do we do it? We found that the vacuum in the rectifier tubes not only isolates their plates from the cathodes, but also the power line from the drive circuitry.Because of this the »RöNt« works like a high class power line filter for our turntables. The purification of the mains noticeably improves the sound in terms of clarity, openness and spaciousness.
BREUER DYNAMIC 8C MKII TONEARM
This tonearm was made by hand in Switzerland by Breuer Dynamics. Rarely seen for resell this item is a must have for vinyl audiophiles. This is the tonearm Helmut Brinkmann used on his turntables until he began production of his own version based on Breuer’s design.
M3X HRS ISOLATION PLATFORM
Highly effective HRS isolation platform for Balance and Spyder turntables. Platform has two separate parts to isolate the motor from the rest of the unit. HRS products are designed to individually make a significant improvement in the performance of a high-end audio or video system. Used together as a system, HRS products will redefine what you thought was possible. Performance is first at HRS and even though we are driven each day by our engineering and manufacturing expertise, we are first and foremost people who love music.
