Clearaudio Master Innovation without Tonearm/systeme

Master Innovation

Please note: These turntables do not include a tonearm or cartridge. The tonearm and cartridge shown in the image are for illustrative purposes only and are not included.

The latest model in the renowned Innovation series sets new standards in the audiophile world. The Master Innovation impressively demonstrates how Clearaudio continuously refines even the best and elevates its sonic performance to new dimensions.

Perfection in mechanics and materials

The solid, dynamically balanced turntable is the heart of this masterpiece. It consists of 70 millimeters of resonance-damping plastic , complemented by a 15 millimeter-thick sub-platter made of precision-machined stainless steel . This construction results in almost double the flywheel mass compared to the proven Innovation model and guarantees exceptionally smooth operation.

Technological innovations for maximum precision

The patented Clearaudio magnetic bearing system has been enhanced with an additional flywheel, further increasing stability. A powerful DC motor ensures fantastic synchronization, with electronic speed control via an infrared sensor (OSC = Optical Speed Control) . The drive's magnetic decoupling effectively eliminates disturbing resonances and ensures pristine sound.

Modularity and upgrade options

The Master Innovation offers the ability to mount up to three tonearms , allowing audiophiles to customize their setup. Owners of an Innovation model can upgrade their system to the Master level to enjoy the benefits of this cutting-edge technology.

With the Master Innovation, Clearaudio sets another example for uncompromising quality and audiophile perfection – an analog monumentality that sets new standards.
