LAB REVIEW
The Clearaudio Concept Active Turntable adds all-in-one functionality to the German company's bestselling Concept model. We like to use the term "refined" when talking about this turntable. Just by looking at the high design and interaction of components, you really get a sense that this turntable is a complete vision, not just a collection of expensive parts. The curvature and beveled features add to this feeling. You just won't find aesthetics like this in this price range. The addition of Integral Class A phono stage and headphone amp brings this refinement full circle to an all-inclusive hi-fi listening experience.
