TW-ACUSTIC RAVEN AC ANNIVERSARY TURNTABLE

£14,795.00

For ten years now TW Acustic has been making a lasting impression on the turntable market. With our first model – the original Raven – perfect build quality became the standard. Not only that, back then we broke new ground and were the first manufacturer to use a custom-developed synthetic compound based on Delrin. Due to its perfect damping properties, it is almost impossible nowadays to think of a better choice of material than this for modern turntable construction. Also, the use of high-torque motors and sophisticated controllers allowed us to set a new benchmark. Thanks to our developments, music-lovers worldwide are able to indulge their audiophile passions with full satisfaction, and to enjoy their fascination with turntables on an impressive level.

Description

TW-ACUSTIC RAVEN AC ANNIVERSARY TURNTABLE

To celebrate TW Acustic’s tenth birthday in March 2013 we present the “Raven AC Anniversary”. The Anniversary represents a new statement in turntable manufacture. It is based on the Raven AC chassis, machined from our well-known proprietary custom compound with a screwed-in stainless-steel plate. The Anniversary’s platter is a composite construction consisting of 40mm thick copper fixed to a 20mm thick slice of our proprietary compound. Consequently, the platter is basically equal to that of the Black Night.

Our anniversary model has a very solid armboard machined from 30mm thick aluminium. We can provide the relevant adaptors for every tonearm. To achieve the correct mounting distance, the position of the adaptor for your particular tonearm can be adjusted steplessly in the slot in 1mm increments. To facilitate this we have etched a scale on the armboard showing 210–310mm. Should you wish to install more tonearms, extra swivel bases can be installed as before with the original Raven AC. From an acoustic point of view, the Anniversary offers the same advantages as the Raven AC, but thanks to the modifications keeps a firm eye on its bigger brother the Raven Black Night. Similar to the Black Night, the Anniversary lets the music flow, yet remains composed and pairs dynamics with incomparable transparency.

It is rare in this class to experience such resolution and dynamics in music. With the Raven AC Anniversary we bring you a big step closer to the ideal of real high fidelity musical reproduction.

    AMG Viella Forte Turntable

    £29,995.00
    “As with the original Viella, the V12, the AMG Viella Forte, with or without the 12JT tonearm, is among the best values in high-performance, “top shelf” turntables. It competes well in terms of sonic performance and build quality with similar products, including some priced far higher.“ – Michael Fremer, Stereophile Magazine
    Price includes 12J2T Tone Arm
    Analog Manufaktur Germany’s Viella Forte turntable, introduced in 2019, is the “super” version of our Viella turntable. The AMG design team focused on mass, rigidity, and refinement to create the Forte, resulting in increased macro-dynamics, more inner detail, larger-scaled presentation, and greater effortlessness.

Chasing The Dragon’s first “Direct Cut” album was of the Interpreti Veneziani performing a wonderful version of Vivaldi’s Four Seasons. When chatting with Paolo, the orchestra’s organizer, CTD discovered the group had never taken part in a ‘live’ recording. They have always performed in the San Vidal Church which is in the Academia area of Venice. The acoustics in the church are outstanding. So after some discussion with the orchestra, they were convinced to record a live double album there. This would mean that a small crew would have to go to Venice and record 5 live concerts. It’s a dirty job, but somebody had to do it! The jump factor of this album really has to be heard!
