Visiting Acoustic Signature
With perfect weather replacing the previous day’s rain, we drove for a couple of hours past rolling hills and fields of bright yellow rapeseed flowers until we arrived in the small town of Süssen, home of Acoustic Signature turntables.

Invictus Neo Turntable and TA-9000 Neo Tonearm Review
THERE’S THAT WORD AGAIN—“NEW.” Probably the most overworked adjective in high-end
audio and merchandizing in general, you see it everywhere and constantly—in advertisements, in manufacturer copy, in showroom banners (and salesmen’s mouths), and, God knows, in equipment reviews (including this one).

TA-7000 NEO Review
This tonearm can be called “The Feather”. The bearings and fit-and-finish are so smooth and refined that there is a barely perceptible feel of the arm when it is moved by hand.

Maximus NEO Review by Analog Planet
It’s a well-built machine that’s dead-quiet, fast off the mark, super-resolving, and uber-lively. In short, it’s a maximally great turntable well worth checking out. Gut gemacht!
