Overview
The entry to high-end analog, the Concept AiR Wood turntable sets a new standard in turntable manufacturing. Precision German engineering combined with the latest technology and timeless design signal a new era in analog playback.
The Concept AiR Wood turntable furthers the sonic excellence of the award-winning Concept turntable. The Concept AiR Wood uses a baltic birch, constrained layer plinth that is both visually attractive and sonically rich and smooth. The aluminum machined sub-platter and rear-mounted fine speed adjustments are an upgrade from the original Concept design.
The Concept AiR Wood is equipped with the Satisfy Black or Satisfy Carbon Fiber tonearm, both featuring a 3-point mechanical bearing, magnetic anti-skate, and hard-wired tonearm cable. The Concept AiR Wood is belt-driven by a low-noise, decoupled DC motor built into the baltic birch plinth. The platter is made of 30mm-thick polymer (POM), an engineering thermoplastic with a weighted rim for increased fly-wheel effect, providing greater speed stability. The Concept Wood plays at three speeds – 33rpm, 45rpm, and 78rpm – selectable by the Electronic Speed Control knob.
