Acutus Reference

Our mid-range Acutus powers the Classic model to new heights of musicality, painting a virtual soundstage of realism that will leave you listening for hours.

Reference provides not just a subjective difference over the Classic, but an instantly obvious lowering of the noise floor with extensions of both bass and treble and a significant dynamic improvement.

"It offers by far the most enjoyable analog experience"
- Jeff Dorgay

Beyond Listening

Capturing your ears with increased highs and powerful lows, with plummeting noise levels producing the renowned inky black backgrounds associated with our turntables, this is a masterpiece of engineering that will redefine your emotional connection with music.

Records will stimulate you, becoming an experience similar to a live venue, experiences that can be relived time after time, long into the nights. An experience that goes beyond listening.
