Unleash Your Inner Audiophile

Audiophiles are notorious for their relentless pursuit of the perfect sound, often going to great lengths to fulfill their sonic cravings. One humorous take from a New Yorker cartoon features a vinyl collector who admits he was drawn to record players by ‘the expense and inconvenience.’ Despite the labor involved in spinning LPs, enthusiasts insist that the aural, aesthetic, and philosophical rewards are well worth the trouble.

Meet the Stunning H2 by Luphonic

Enter the Luphonic H2, a turntable that is not just a feast for the ears but also a visual delight, particularly suited for minimalist, Bauhaus-style interiors. This innovative device boasts a user-friendly design—forget about an array of buttons and switches! With only a sleek, removable puck, you can easily set the speed to either 33 or 45 rpm with a quick flip, while the speed indicator glows to guide you. Remove the puck, and the H2 stands as an elegant centerpiece.

Engineering That Elevates Sound Quality

Constructed from a unique ‘sandwich’ of vibration-damping neoprene foam encased in high-density Corian, the H2 is engineered to minimize resonance—one of the biggest foes of audio clarity. Its striking white finish is the result of an extensive polishing process, ensuring a glass-like surface that looks as good as it sounds. The H-shaped chassis design further reduces interference between the tonearm and platter, delivering purer audio.

Advanced Features for Auditory Excellence

The turntable is powered by a microprocessor-controlled synchronous motor, which is belt-driven for minimal vibration. This motor is thoughtfully decoupled from both the chassis and tonearm, eliminating any mechanical disturbances during playback. Aside from requiring a phono cartridge, the H2 comes fully equipped with Luphonic’s advanced K2 tonearm featuring traditional gimbal suspension and precision Japanese ball bearings, along with a silicone record mat designed for optimal sound.

Experience Exquisite Sound Quality

With a price tag of $4,995, the H2 delivers sound quality that matches its luxurious cost. To truly experience its incredible audio potential, pair it with a high-quality two-channel system and a top-tier cartridge and phono preamp. Our recent demo with high-end Swiss Nagra Classic Series electronics and Boenicke W8 SE speakers yielded spectacular results—expensive, yes, but using the Luphonic H2 was anything but inconvenient. Just be careful with that puck!
