AVID HIFI NOW OFFERS COMPLETE VINYL REPRODUCTION SOLUTIONS AT MULTIPLE LEVELS

British HiFi brand Avid HiFi has been manufacturing turntables for over a quarter of a century, and now they have announced the launch of two new tonearms.

These new tonearms allow Avid to offer complete turntable solutions at multiple price points to meet the growing demand for vinyl reproduction.

The Avid HiFi Nexus is the brand’s flagship tonearm and features a 9-inch bespoke hyper-strong and rigid titanium arm tube,  a Rigid Architecture Bearing with parts manufactured to micron tolerances and Avid’s Progressive Bias Compensation Mechanism offering a linear offset to counteract increasing centripetal forces.
