"A thing of beauty is a   joy forever."

Experience the artistry and craftsmanship that sets our turntables apart, making them a treasure for music lovers.

THE FIVE ELEMENTS OF GREATNESS

We believe there are FIVE important elements that must be combined to elevate a mere record player into a turntable or as we like to refer to our turntables... "MUSICAL INSTRUMENTS"

ELEMENT ONE
Solid Hardwood deck

Along with the incredible anti-resonant properties of natural hardwoods comes strength and beauty. Since each one of our turntables is made from distinct woods they are also unique pieces of art. A ONE of ONE that is of heirloom quality.

ELEMENT TWO
Cartridge & Tonearm Compliance

We understand that the sound signature of a turntable is profoundly influenced by the choice of cartridge and its compliance with the tonearm. This crucial factor is often overlooked, even by seasoned vendors. That's why we meticulously select our tonearms and cartridges, ensuring that our recommendations harmonize perfectly for an exceptional listening experience. 

ELEMENT THREE
Quite & Stable Drive Systems

The objective of a good turntable motor is to spin the platter precisely at 33 1/3 RPM or 45 RPM without introducing noise or vibrations. We consider our options to be best in class.

ELEMENT FOUR
Anti Resonant Supports

Our unique and proprietary isolators help enhance the sonic superiority of Pahmer Turntables. By eliminating airborne and surface vibrations, they prevent these vibrations from reentering the turntable and give this energy a place to dissipate effectively.

ELEMENT FIVE
Precision Set-up & Tuning

Proper setup of a turntable requires skill and experience. The important issues of vertical tracking alignment, cartridge azimuth, tracking force, and anti-skating for the specific cartridge are all addressed when we perform a setup. Rest assured, we use state-of-the-art devices and years of experience to get everything correct.
