  The summer holidays<\/strong> are closing to an end\u2026 As the saying goes, all good things come to an end! If you have taken some time out during the holidays, here is a short review of the highlights of the summer<\/strong> at maPlatine.com. <\/p>\n

maPlatine.com’s visit to leading Hi-Fi brands<\/h2>\n

In early June, we travelled to England to visit REGA’s production site<\/a>. This visit with Roy Gandy (founder) and Guy Boselli (French importer for Sound & Colors) was a very enlightening experience, in particular in regards to the production of REGA<\/a> products. The warm welcome we got was also a great plus! \ud83d\ude09 \"Photo In late June, we travelled to Denmark to visit Ortofon’s production plant<\/a>. We also enjoyed great company there with our hosts, members of the Ortofon<\/a> team and Alteraudio’s importer. This second visit<\/strong> was also very friendly and a great experience! \"Photo A few days after our second visit, we were off to Germany to visit Clearaudio’s production plant<\/a>. On this occasion, we met the brand’s CEO, Robert Suchy, our VIP guide. The visit was also very educational and we had the opportunity to see the production of the great vinyl turntables<\/a> and Hi-Fi cartridges<\/a>. A great experience! \"Photo In mid-July, the last stage of our ‘European tour’: the visit to Focal\/Naim Audio’s production plants<\/a>, in France this time, in Saint-Etienne. The French brand Focal<\/strong> recently bought out British firm Naim Audio<\/a>. During this visit, we were able to admire a wide selection of speakers, every single one of them very impressive. Great discoveries! \"Photo A big thank you to all these brands and the importers who were there during the visits for their time and warm welcome! <\/p>\n

An athletic summer at maPlatine.com<\/h2>\n

The summer 2016<\/strong> was also when the European football championship was organised in France! And at maPlatine.com, we were standing at the ready to cheer for our French team, who gave us great moments. \ud83d\ude42 \"Photo Another major event of the summer 2016<\/strong>: The Rio Olympics! We couldn’t miss out on the event. For the occasion, we wanted to do something special, still analogue-related \ud83d\ude09 \"Photo <\/p>\n

maPlatine.com’s new flyers<\/h2>\n

The picture of the summer<\/h2>\n

Finally, here is a photo from the maPlatine.com Instagram account<\/a> that was most commented on over the summer: the Benz Micro Glider SH cartridge<\/a>. This phono cartridge has been a flagship of the Swiss brand<\/strong> for more than 15 years. From the opening bars, you can understand why: playback is subtle, detailed and transparent. An industry benchmark! \"Photo Now that the holidays are (almost) over, time to think about the new season<\/strong>!
