In 2016 we had lots of new arrivals<\/a>, and 2017 is no different! We\u2019re only halfway through the year and already several new products have found their way onto the maPlatine.com website. Read on to find out more about our top picks from the 2017 cohort of new turntables, now available on our website<\/strong>!   <\/p>\n

Acoustic Signature turntables<\/a><\/h2>\n

During our tour of the Acoustic Signature factories<\/a>, we were completely won over by the German brand’s vinyl turntables<\/strong>. After our experience, it only seemed right that we start selling them on our website! As a veteran of the homegrown approach to manufacturing, Acoustic Signature<\/strong> has been producing high quality high-end record players<\/a> in its German factories for over 20 years. Its products are considered industry benchmarks the world over.   <\/p>\n

The Acoustic Signature Primus vinyl turntable<\/h3>\n

The Acoustic Signature Primus turntable<\/strong> is available in two versions: one fitted with the Rega RB-202 tonearm<\/a> and and the other with the Acoustic Signature TA-500 tonearm<\/a>. This turntable is generally considered to be the German brand\u2019s entry-level model. But it is still capable of delivering remarkable audiophile performances, and is one of Acoustic Signature<\/a>‘s flagship products. The Primus<\/strong> is guaranteed to do justice to all of your favourite records with its precise and well-balanced sound reproduction. And its TA-500 tonearm only adds to the quality! \"Platine<\/a> <\/p>\n

The Acoustic Signature WOW XL vinyl turntable<\/a><\/h3>\n

The Acoustic Signature WOW XL turntable<\/strong> is a revamped version of the famous Acoustic Signature WOW record player<\/a>. But in reality, the only similarity between these two products is their appearance! The most significant improvement is undoubtedly the TA-700 tonearm, manufactured by Acoustic Signature<\/a> itself. Its excellent design means it is highly versatile and therefore compatible with a wide range of MM (mostly high-end) and MC cartridges. But no matter the phono cartridge you choose, whether it’s an Ortofon 2M Black MM cartridge<\/a> or Ortofon Cadenza Red MC cartridge<\/a>, the sound quality of the WOW XL will be precise, dynamic and neutral. A maPlatine.com top pick!   \"Platine<\/a>   <\/p>\n

ELAC vinyl turntables<\/a><\/h2>\n

Although originally active in the field of radio signals, ELAC<\/a> branched out into the world of analogue and vinyl turntables<\/strong> in 1948. On the back of this success, the company then started to produce High Fidelity speakers. Today, ELAC<\/strong> is well-known and respected by music lovers across the globe.   <\/p>\n

The ELAC Miracord 90 vinyl turntable<\/a><\/h3>\n

The ELAC Miracord 90 turntable<\/strong> was designed specifically to celebrate the German company\u2019s 90th birthday. As well as boasting a striking aesthetic, the Miracord 90<\/strong> turntable<\/a> delivers excellent results. The reproduction is highly dynamic, detailed and bursting with realism. And we\u2019re not the only ones to be bowled over by this ELAC record player<\/a>! Despite only being on the market for a few months, it has already received several accolades from the industry press for its many audiophile qualities. Quite amazing! \"Platine<\/a>   <\/p>\n

Dual turntables<\/a><\/h2>\n

A few weeks ago, we announced that Dual products were now available to buy on maPlatine.com<\/a>. Thanks to the vinyl revival, this iconic brand has been able to make a big comeback. So much so, in fact, that it has released a whole new range of vinyl turntables<\/strong>, which we naturally decided to include in our 2017 cohort of essential new products!   <\/p>\n

The Dual CS 435-1 vinyl turntable<\/a><\/h3>\n

The Dual CS 435-1 turntable<\/strong> is one of the German brand\u2019s entry-level models. This record player is fully automatic and therefore very easy to use. The CS 435-1<\/a> delivers excellent sound quality for a turntable in this range, complete with dynamism and presence. If you’re looking for a practical but high quality product, this automatic turntable<\/a> is likely to suit you well! It also has potential for upgrades, as a higher end phono cartridge<\/a> can be fitted onto the Dual CS 435-1<\/strong> tonearm. \"Platine<\/a> <\/p>\n

Dual CS 505-4 vinyl turntable<\/a><\/h3>\n

The Dual CS 505-4 vinyl turntable<\/strong> is undoubtedly the German brand\u2019s most well-known model. It has been in production since the 1980s, but Dual<\/a> is now releasing this fourth edition of the CS 505 record player<\/strong>. Much to the delight of long-time fans of this semi-automatic turntable<\/a>! The tonearm lifts up automatically when a record is finished, noticeably improving the user-friendliness of the product. As regards sound quality, the reproduction is dynamic and precise, although there is still room for improvement by changing the phono cartridge<\/strong> at a later date. It is quite simply a legendary turntable. \"Platine<\/a>   <\/p>\n

MoFi vinyl turntables<\/a><\/h2>\n

Any long-time vinyl fan will recognise these four famous letters \u2013 MoFi<\/strong>, AKA Mobile Fidelity Sound Lab, is well-known for its High Fidelity recordings and high quality pressing. And now the American brand has branched out into the turntable<\/strong> market. Much to our delight!   <\/p>\n

The MoFi StudioDeck+ turntable<\/a><\/h3>\n

The MoFi StudioDeck+ turntable<\/strong> is this famous American brand’s first vinyl turntable<\/a>. And it is a triumph, especially for a first attempt! Its quality can be explained largely by MoFi<\/a>‘s sensible decision to surround itself with analogue experts during the design process of its record players<\/strong>. The StudioDeck+ turntable<\/a>‘s main asset is undoubtedly its top quality tonearm. It works perfectly with a wide variety of high-end MM<\/a> and MC<\/a> cartridges, giving it plenty of potential for upgrades. In short, this won’t be the last you hear about this new product! \"Platine<\/a>   As you can see, the first half of 2017 has seen the arrival of some truly excellent new record players<\/strong>. And after such an amazing six months, we can\u2019t wait to see what the second half of the year has in store!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
