Opus3 is a Swedish company known to audiophile LP collectors, famous for natural sounding recordings of mainly acoustic music.

The story of the Continuo turntable is the classic “I couldn’t find a turntable to properly play my recordings”… Opus3 owner / producer Bo Hansson… and the Continuo, a turntable now 24 years old, was the result.

Heavy, dense, non-suspended base, combined with the unique Cantus linear tracking tonearm, and belt driven design, produces an exceptional performing turntable at a price not thought possible before.

The Cantus arm is an unusual but extremely effective tonearm. It is a linear tracking design with an exceptionally low 15 grams of moving mass. The resulting lack of tracing distortion is astonishing and the dynamics and resolving detail this arm is capable of retrieving are remarkable. The Continuo JRi is available in five natural wood finishes…..Oak, Birch, Kirsch (Cherry), Ash and Black Ash.

The origin of the famous German turntable company, DUAL, goes back to 1927 when the company developed “dual-mode” motors. The first turntable from Dual was produced in 1949, and by 1950 annual production exceeded 200,000 units. Over the decades, Dual brand grew to the #1 market share position world-wide based on design integrity, reliability, and sonic performance and value.

Today, the DUAL products are still proudly manufactured in the same factory in Germany’s Black Forest region.

With the renewed interest in analogue vinyl LP playback, the DUAL product lineup consists of five fully automatic turntables, ranging in price from $429 to $999, all complete with phono cartridges mounted.

The optional USB accessory allows any of these turntables to connect to your computer easily for archival / MP3 use.

Nottingham Analogue Studio was founded in Great Britain over four decades ago and produces some of the finest turntables in the world. The primary purpose of better analogue LP playback is to savour every last bit of music buried in these timeless grooves, and Nottingham’s design philosophy does just that.

Their basic design idea, now incorporated into seven models, and adopted by most other turntable manufacturer is to liberate the platter, arm and motor from the resonance-laden, box-like base which housed most turntables in the past.

This elimination of resonance and the control of unwanted vibrations and motor interaction, has produced some of the world’s great LP playback systems… the Nottingham line ranges from $2500 to $41,000. Reviewers agree on the unique position Nottingham holds in the audio world and we are very pleased to announce, that the Nottingham Space 294 turntable has won The Absolute Sound’s Editor’s Choice Award 2010 for Turntables four years in a row, and was awarded the Product of the Year in 2007.
