it’s no secret that we’re in love with vintage gear and most of the time prefer it in terms of both sound and build quality.
in the past 20+ years we’ve seen almost every piece of pro audio gear from the inside.
only a few gathered our interest. if it seemed worth it, we took a deeper look and even deeper listen.
over time some brands really stood out and as we frequently get asked what type of gear we would recommend, we decided to support the manufacturers we can really stand behind.
we are proud to represent and distribute the following brands in austria.
amphion studio monitors.
if you are looking for a speaker which not only delivers the needed truth in full three dimensional detail for mixing and mastering, but also keeps the vibe right for creating music, look no further.
we normally stock pairs of amphion one15, one18 and two18 reference monitors with the amp700 and specially braided silver coated copper conductor cables. larger base systems flexbase25, basetwo25 and the new undsiputed active full range studio monitor champ: one25A upon request.
we believe the best way to find out if they can help your workflow is to try them in your familiar environment. get in touch for a demo pair if you are willing to upgrade your setup.
vertigo sound quality outboard.
always wanted a versatile, flexible compressor suitable for tracking, mixing and mastering, punchy and modern with the right amount of vintage vibe? you found it. the vertigo sound VSC-3 quad discrete compressor. of course its also available as stepped mastering version.
we usually stock a demo/rental unit, but beware, it might be in daily use at our own studio anyway. get a quote for yours today! also keep an eye on the other beautiful sounding tools of this german brand – they are built to be used for decades.
grimm audio master clocks.
even the best analogue chain will be digitized at one point.
the grimm CC2 was the first unit we tested which gave us a significant improvement of soundstage (and we tested them all), even while clocking just ONE already internally well clocked converter. now think of a larger chain of several units working together nicely, the grimm CC1v2 will truly work its magic on your setup, trust us.
grimm also manufactures very nice sounding audio cables, we usually stock 100m of TPR cable and will build custom ones for you. discuss your needs, now.
roger schult fine analogue filters.
the never-ending search for a perfect analogue mastering chain led us to the superb products of roger schult. we stock a demo unit of the UF-1 and deeply recommend it to any proper mastering facility.
if you’re more into the world of 500 series modules, feel free to check out our demo rack on site with pairs of V2359j amp4ribbon, W2324 phase shifter and W2377 MK2 filter.
roger schult has designed several other very useful high quality audio tools, we can organise them for you if needed, just ask.
lehmann audio headphone / phono preamps.
as with every tool, quality really matters. the best headphone only delivers what it gets from the amp. same with the best turntable, needle, cartridge. it’s better to invest once in the beginning of your audio signal chain, than trying to fix it later in your work.
even the entry level products of lehmann will outperform most other competitors. make your own opinion with a demo unit, we always stock linear pro headphone amps and black cube phono preamps. the stamp power amplifier could be the right choice for small speaker setups.
breakaweights unique record stabilizer weights.
we love to spin original vinyl records from 12″ maxis to 7″ 45s . on large club audio systems it can quickly get problematic due to low frequency feedback without proper stabilizer record weights.
these unique 100% high grade stainless steel high quality, highly functional turntable weights where designed specifically for DJs and audiophiles. on top you can use them directly as 45 adapters – smart. they also increase clarity and accuracy to sonic reproduction in your HIFI setup for sure. need some? we stock them.
sommer cable quality audio cables.
we’re not into the usual voodoo, but a cable built with proper materials and care by specialists will outperform your standard low budget strand anytime. your precious instruments deserve it, your recordings will benefit, it saves your mix engineer time and nerves.
we stock a wide range of “tested to be worth it” sommer cables (e.g. galileo 238 plus, spirit xxl, peacock, goblin, pegasus – to name a few) and can supply you with tailor-made solutions. tell us what you need.
nordic audio labs
musical microphones.
to capture the musical emotions in the recording should be the number one task for microphones. thats basically the reason why the well known classic mics dating back to the 1950s still setting the benchmark today. they simply capture the magic in a nice, natural way.
we strongly recommend to demo our pair of nu-100k or nu-47vs3 at your next recording session and listen to the muscial results for yourself. reserve the mics now.
