Bergmann Audio Magne Gold Edition

The Bergmann Audio Magne Gold Edition turntable is a luxury, high-end vinyl playback system that combines advanced air-bearing technology with premium materials and meticulous engineering.

• Airbearing Design:
  Platter: The aluminum platter, centered by a steel spindle running in a low-friction polymer bearing, floats on a thin air film. This design virtually eliminates mechanical noise and provides excellent isolation from external vibrations.
  Tonearm: The system includes a linear tracking air-bearing tonearm (Magne tonearm), which rides on an air cushion for frictionless, zero-tracking-error playback.

• Plinth and Construction:
  Material: Polymer and aluminum composite, finished in Black Velvet with 24-carat gold plating for a luxurious look.
  Base Plate: High-density composite material for stability.

• Motor and Drive:
  Motor: Tacho motor with high-precision feedback control for exceptional speed accuracy (0.003%).
  Drive: Belt-driven.
  Speeds: 33⅓ and 45 rpm.

• Record Hold-Down:
  Clamp: Record flattening clamp for improved contact and reduced resonance.

• Subplatter:
  Material: Aluminum, weight: 1.5 kg.

• Platter:
  Material: Aluminum platter with polycarbonate mat.
  Weight: 5.5 kg.

  Turntable: 440 mm (D) × 495 mm (W) × 165 mm (H).
  Air Supply Unit: 370 mm (D) × 195 mm (W) × 175 mm (H).

• Weight:
  Turntable: 20 kg.
  Air Supply Unit: 8.3 kg.

• Tonearm:
  Type: Linear tracking air-bearing.
  Construction: Aluminum/carbon arm tube, internally damped.
  Counterweight: Decoupled from the arm tube to minimize resonance.
  Wiring: Pure copper Litz wire, gold-plated copper clips.
  Connectors: Gold-plated RCA, XLR, and DIN.
  Effective Mass: 11 g.

• Air Supply System:
  Pump: Oil-free, long-life, low-maintenance unit.
  Filter: Replaceable dust filter for clean, dry airflow.
  Reservoir: Encapsulated reservoir absorbs pump impulses for smooth, silent airflow.

• User Experience:
  Easy Operation: Simple to adjust and operate.
  Maintenance: Minimal due to air-bearing and oil-free pump design.
  Noise: Air supply is so quiet it can be placed in the listening room
