AVID - SEQUEL TURNTABLE IN SATIN

AVID/SEQUEL TURNTABLE

The AVID Sequel is one of the Finest Analog Devices of its Kind!

The AVID Sequel is an upgrade from their Volvere table. This unit adds a few key features to the attributes of the Volvere and transports the listener within breathing room of the Acutus. The AVID Sequel employs an unmodified motor used by the Acutus for significantly better control over the platter. The macro/micro dynamics are noticeably improved, resulting in better definition within the musical event. In audiophile circles, this is referred to as PRaT (Pace, Rhythm and Timing), which in analog playback terms is the difference between reproduced music and the actual event. The increased control of the platter also translates into better control of the suspension movements. This leads to a reduction in record surface and background noise, creating a blacker background and allowing more music to flow through your system. The increase in bandwidth allows amazing bass extension and a more natural high frequency presentation.  The Sequel is topped off with an external dedicated power supply utilizing the state-of-the-art, split-phase quartz-locked technology used for the Acutus. The Sequel is one of the most serious assaults on state of the art analog playback.

“Put a favourite LP on the platter, screw down the fine threaded clamp and let the needle into the groove and you'll hear things you never expected vinyl to deliver. Killer bass that goes all the way down and shakes the furniture, the most transparent of midranges that lets everything through, and the sweetest highs imaginable.”  —The Editors of Hi-Fi Choice on the Sequel
