IDEA
It all started when Micha Huber was looking for a way to combine the advantages of a conventional rotary lever and those of a linear tangential lifting lever. The solution method is based on a well-known elementary school tool for constructing tangents: the Thales circle. After much thought and calculation, a three-dimensional mechanical solution emerged that meets all the requirements of a modern pick-up system.
The long-cherished dream of geometrically correct tracking with low-friction pivot bearings has become a reality. A new patent has been added to the dozens of existing patents that bear witness to this dream: CH 694567 Tangential Pivoted Tonearm, announced in May 2004.
FORM
Our products are characterized by an elegant and noble design with a touch of modesty. We do not follow the tendency of materials to spoil, but we emphasize the inner values. The shape, material and surface are the result of a carefully executed engineering process, to ensure that each individual part perfectly performs its function in the overall concept. In 2016, we started cooperation with Steuri Industrial Design. The appearance of the TTT-Slim II, designed by Milos Ristin and Thomas Steuri, is the first result of this joint development work.
TECHNOLOGY
Our philosophy is not only to find theoretical perfect solutions, but also to realize them in the most precise way and achieve constant improvements in order to set new standards in music reproduction. Therefore, we constantly invest in research and development and have realized tangentially rotated arms with a more complex mathematical background that allows for a more elegant mechanical performance.
Based on the experience that a turntable with a tonearm should be designed as a single unit, we have developed our own line of turntables that meet the highest demands. The portfolio is completed with our own phono and line cables.
