Do you remember the Lusso turntable? Didn’t we just love its modern and classy design? Well, the same folks, Montegiro, who created it are back in the world of high-end audio systems with the new Legno turntable. This latest design is a result of intense research, perhaps that is why you will find a bulky bamboo layer around the chassis, which means that it offers a great combination of wood with high-class steel.

Apart from redefining acoustic luxury, the Legno turntable is also equipped to produce quality output from your old vinyl records. Wood’s stabilizing qualities and resonance damping properties are tapped to their potential. The entire mechanism sits pretty on four adjustable, high-grade steel feet that are coupled with O-rings made from rubber composite. It also features a synchronous motor driven by a high-end outboard controller creating a delicate and exceptional sound.

The 10.5-inch tonearm comes with Koetsu cartridge. You can choose yours between the Montegiro model and three others by Da Vinci, SME or Jelco. The suggested price is close $13,000 but the final price tag remains to be announced. Till then prepare yourself to reach stratospheric audio highs.

I use to wonder what gives the courage to the turntable makers demand such a hefty price from their every new creation of a device that plays your favorite track by rotating a phonograph on a circular horizontal platform. Can’t they have few affordable productions as well? It seems Montegiro was listening to this thought and thence unveiled the unique Montegiro Lusso turntable priced at $47,000. The arrangement of black circular rings on the aluminum backdrop with silver touch provides a bizarre pose.

This creation from Germany exemplifies that vinyl is still alive. Targeting audio excellence, it features three height adaptable connected cones developed via alternate layers of aluminum and black acrylic. Whilst its one cone is supported by a lately developed ultra precise synchronous motor, the other one rests upon standard 10″ Da Vinci Nobile carbon fiber arm and Montegiro MG1 titanium cartridge. If you want a little more uniqueness then free feel to eye Lusso’s special edition, which comes equipped with a fourth cone sustaining a second 9″ SME 5009 tonearm.
