"Sound optimization starts right at the record. If this area does not cause any spurious vibrations, the cartridge can perform optimally." Ralf Woelfel, Developer

Precision

We manufacture our parts at a regional mechanical engineering supplier. Each individual piece is manufactured with high precision and then measured and checked with the utmost precision. It then receives a ceramic-based surface treatment. This is quality at the highest level.

Design

Design to the last detail: Design and functionality are mutually dependent. Therefore, close cooperation between developer and designer is very important to us right from the start. This is how award-winning design is created.

Innovation

More than three decades of experience in machine tool construction are the basis for our innovations. Developer Dipl. Ing. Ralf Wölfel has rethought every detail of a recordplayer from scratch. This resulted in a whole series of innovations, all of which are used in our M1 and TM1 models.

Ars Machinae: Development & production from one source

The Refine® technology used in our products is based on the principles of rigidity and damping used in modern mechanical engineering. Each component was checked by us during the development process and the optimal conditions were determined in this way. Ars Machinae stands for innovation in every detail.
