Hurricane NEO
Our brand new Hurricane NEO represents the entry into our multi-motor drive concept. The Acoustic Signature Hurricane NEO lives up to its name in terms of dynamics and belies all those analog lovers who claim that a high mass turntable cannot perform explosively and with fine dynamics at the same time. The Hurricane NEO is prepared for 3 tonearms – offering an enormous amount of flexibility and musicality with exceptional value for the money. In short: Hurricane NEO is a Future Classic that will raise a lot of audiophile dust!
