Masterpiece Opus One
Masterpiece Opus One Masterpiece // Speakers Description With Opus One, we are proud to share our newly designed flagship loudspeaker. Many years of collaboration with Purifi Audio’s legendary drive units coupled with a Real precision ribbon tweeter has enabled a significant quantum step up from everything we have built before. Opus One establishes new benchmarks in musicality, transparency, and fidelity along with testing our limits of dynamic speaker design with a constellation of exotic technologies, techniques and materials. Expressed in immaculate execution in every little detail from distressed hides and exotic hardwoods to engraved panels and de-coupled to the rest of the world via an isolation platform. A timeless piece of art in your living environment ready to engage the soul with a beautiful portrayal of musical expression and to create something unique in balance between art, craftsmanship, technology and performance. The combination of Purifi Audio Ushindi technology bass/mid motors and the Raal ribbon tweeter are able to employ lightning-fast precision and deliver exquisite whisper-quiet musical passages or thunderous bass completely free of distorting cabinet resonances. Dual 8″ passive radiators tuned to the cabinet volume offer the perfect way of enhancing bass energy without the inherent problems with ports or transmission lines. Cabinet construction begins with an inert baffle of 50mm thickness and employing a fully braced design througout. Often the biggest problem with loudspeaker design is its inability to decouple itself from the floor and also other extraneous airborne vibrations. The perfect solution was an existing design which has already won many awards in its own right and able to completely remove the passage of deleterious vibrations both to and from the speaker cabinets. This impart a serious improvement in soundstage and bass precision. For those wishing to experience the visceral thrill and lyricism of the best loudspeakers in the world should audition Opus One.

Record Weight
Record Weight Accessories // Turntable Description The record weight is another one of those Hifi products we wonder if they make a difference or improvement. After many months of testing and research, I can categorically say they do! The solid tone wood Puk’s such as African Blackwood, Lignum Vitae and various Burr woods are chosen for their natural ability to dampen micro vibrations inherent within a turntable and the record surface. Subtle but noticeable differences can be heard in a clearer resolution and reduced background noise. Piano notes become cleaner and more distinct with additional air around vocals and instruments. The latest generation of record weights now include a combination of African Blackwood and Panzerholtz with high grade Chromium ball bearings to give additional improvements over the standard hardwood Puk’s. Every record weight is hand made and polished with hard wax. Price £300Standard Record Weight £560 Ref Record weight Enquire About product Gallery Gallery
Masterpiece Edition Turntable
Masterpiece Edition Turntable Masterpiece // Turntable Description Another exciting project and product development is based around the well known Swiss made Lenco turntable which fundamentally is constructed extremely well with a precision motor and structure that lends itself to be upgraded and modified to create an incredibly good turntable. The initial phase involves a complete strip down of every component with certain key parts replaced or modified. The main chassis is resprayed and lacquered before re-assembly and lubricated for longevity and noise reduction. Because the central spindle and platter are already of a very high standard and tolerance, these are polished and retained. The main bearing is either replaced with an upgraded bearing or modified with a new ruby ball bearing and thrust plate. The main motor is stripped down and inspected for wear or noise, re-assembled and lubricated. I have yet to find a motor which has failed these tests or brought back to a new standard. The high mass plinth is a based around the natural qualities of certain hardwoods and their abilities to exhibit very high levels of resonance and damping control as well as high density and other acoustic characteristics.. This model is made from solid sections of Bubinga hardwood which is incredibly heavy and dense, perfect for reducing micro vibrations within the motor and main turntable structure. This combined with Tungsten carbide ball bearings on Panzerholz dampening feet ensure the combined structure of the turntable is virtually free from extraneous effects and vibrations. A choice of tonearm boards made from either the same hardwood or Panzerholtz is available with additional dampening and specifically chosen for their acoustic characteristics and density. Days of sanding and preparation are done prior to a high gloss lacquer finish with further wet sanding, buffing and final polishing before final assembly and soak testing. A choice of tonearm is also available and from SME, Ikea and Reed along with a select number of cartridges from Phasemation of Japan. Please get in touch to discuss this product.
