INSTALLATIONS OF THE NAGRA HD PHONO

We have delivered the first HD PHONO in November and continue to build them at a regular pace.

This very ambitious state of the art unit requires many critical components coming from the best suppliers around the world.

It takes many hours to assemble and test them. Check this page to find out more about the unique features of the HD PHONO that makes it a unique phono stage.

MUSIK & FORM EVENT IN Zürich, SWITZERLAND

Thank you again Musik & Form for this great event in Zürich in December!

The star of the show was the new CLASSIC DAC II in good company with a whole Nagra CLASSIC kit. The Acoustic Solid turntable was mounted with a Nagra MC-6 cartridge connected to a CLASSIC PHONO.

The attendees were blown away by the quality of the sound, both digital and analog. A hallmark of all Nagra electronics offer this unique blend of accuracy and musicality – a magical but elusive combination to achieve.

The second set up featured a Nagra Seven, that played through a TUBE DAC and a CLASSIC INT. This was a really great match with the Seidenton speakers and the Aurender N200 network transport. Seidenton speakers are designed and built Switzerland by Patrick Nyffenger. It started as a hobby to build his own personal speakers but Seidenton is now fast becoming recognized for the sonic attributes of their speaker line-up. The speakers are very balanced and musical, easy to drive and relaxed, they offered a great match for the Nagra CLASSIC AMP.

What a nice way to finish 2023! Listening sessions lasted late in the evening and gave us a warm feeling in contrast with the heavy snow outside.

Thank you for joining us and congratulations to Patrick and Thomas for the new shop!
