The new Lusso turntable from Germany’s Montegiro makes vinyl
sexy all over again. Three height-adjustable cones comprising alternate layers
of polished aluminium and black acrylic surround a central inverted cone that
supports the aluminium and acrylic platter.
An extremely precise high-end
synchronous motor suspended within one of the cones drives this sleek audio
machine.
The
basic configuration comes with a 10’’ Da Vinci Nobile carbon fiber arm and the
MG1, a state-of-the-art pickup system from Montegiro made of titanium, and is
priced at US$47,000. The company’s top-of-the-line model adds a fourth cone to
the basic setup – in the form of a 9” SME 5009 tonearm.
