• Breathtaking Transparancy 

Unveiled
Our rigid bearing architecture has been passed down from the Nexus to achieve realistic sonic images carved in the soundscape, astonishing your senses with a sound you can virtually touch.

Altus employs an thick walled aluminium arm tube to make sure the cartridge is held securely above the record and aid transmission of vibration away from the cartridge, so your music is unveiled.

Sound Connection
The same Bias compensation mechanism found on the Nexus counteracts centripetal forces, thus avoiding tracking issues, undue record wear and maintaining your musical enjoyment. 
Our purpose designed low capacitance external phono cable reassuringly clicks into place using an superior right angled DIN connector and terminated with high quality gold plated RCA plugs. For purists wishing to embrace the naturally balanced output of a phono cartridge, the cable is also available fully balanced with XLR connectors.
