Tube Power Supply »RöNt«
This power supply caused quite a stir. First because of the seemingly far off idea of using vacuum tubes for a low-voltage turntable power supply. And second because the sound of our »Balance« and »LaGrange« turntables is – albeit slightly, but clearly – improved in terms of clarity, openness and spaciousness. Maybe the idea wasn't that far off to begin with: the vacuum in the rectifier tubes not only isolates their plates from the cathodes, but also the power line from the drive circuitry. In other words: as it turns out, the best power line filter for our turntables is simply... a void!
