Handcrafted in Erlangen, Germany - Clearaudio products are regarded as innovative, of true quality, and of setting the highest standards by hi-fi specialists and top class engineers alike. Based on this philosophy Clearaudio has been setting new standards in the analogue reproduction of music for more than 30 years. They offer a comprehensive range of high-end phono cartridges, tonearms and turntables, phono preamplifiers, class-A amplifiers, plugs, cables, racks and even the audiophile production of vinyl records.
Master Innovation Wood
Clearaudio's Master Innovation Wood is the ultimate expression of the Innovation Wood platform. It features a magnetic platter drive system based upon the award winning and incomparable Statement turntable.
It takes the magnetic drive system from the
ultimate Clearaudio Statement with an additional 15mm
stainless steel sub-platter. The upper platter uses 85mm
Ceramic Magnetic Bearing (CMB) and the 3 speed DC motor
offers Optical Speed Control (OSC) and push button
electronic speed selection. The 4 Tri-star plinths feature
solid Panzerholz and aluminum sandwich construction to
minimize resonance and vibration. The master Innovation Wood
is capable of supporting 3 tonearms to allow for convenient
and optimal playback of a wide range of source material and
formats. More importantly, the Master Innovation Wood is on
demonstration at Audio
High in Mountain View so you can audition it today.
Concept
At the other end of the scale we are also
proud to demonstrate the Clearaudio Concept turntable that
offers stunning German design and build quality in a
remarkably affordable and easy to live with package.
Available without cartridge or factory fitted with either
the Concept MM or MC cartridges, it can be ready to play
straight out of the box.
In
searching for an appropriate product to offer new or 'born
again' vinyl fans, we fell in love with the Concept as it
offered a great deal of performance and quality at a bargain
price. We weren't the only ones to recognize such a
fantastic combination;
"If you feel the need for an outstanding
turntable between now and then though, don't think twice."
Turntable product of the year 2009, 2010, 20111 in What
Hi-Fi Sound and Vision.
"Whether you power the Clearaudio Concept with
the standard issue power supply or take it a step forward
with pure DC power, I feel this table is the new benchmark
in its price class. It combines simple setup with stunning
good looks and performance to match. We are happy to award
the Clearaudio Concept one of our Exceptional Value Awards
for 2010."
Jeff Dorgay, ToneAudio
"Fitted with the Concept MC cartridge,
Clearaudio's plug'n'play Concept turntable-tonearm-cartridge
combo is exceptionally attractive, easy to set up and use,
and seems better built than its price would suggest. It's a
quiet, smooth performer that excels at midrange smoothness
and transparency of the sort that makes speakers seem to
vanish—even my $65,000/pair speakers."
Michael Fremer, Stereophile, June 2011.
"The Clearaudio Concept turntable package does
everything but unbox itself. For sheer musical engagement
and superb speed stability it's the 'table to beat in this
range."
Wayne Garcia, The Absolute Sound, Issue 205.
