More than any of these things, it is the moment where records cease to be 'fun' or 'beguiling' and instead become the most compelling way of listening to music. Where it not for the fact that I've heard the Acutus so I know how much more Avid has to give, the Ingenium would see me good for the rest of my days.

That depends on your needs and requirements. If you want a creditable playback system that supplies the essentials of each record in lively and concise terms then a well-designed budget deck will serve you well. If, on the other hand, you want to get to the bottom of your music, to peel back the layers and reveal the truth of what the music is trying to say and to key into the vocalist’s emotive pathways then a higher end audiophile deck is what you need. As such, the Ingenium is a serious and ideal entry point to such a world. It’s not a budget deck, no, but it is a competitively priced audiophile turntable that oozes quality in both construction and sound and offers an excellent entry point into serious music listening. \" \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"text-align: left;\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\" data-mce-style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eREVIEW: AVID HIFI INGENIUM TURNTABLE - \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.stereonet.com\/au\/reviews\/review-avid-hifi-ingenium-turntable\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-mce-href=\"https:\/\/www.stereonet.com\/au\/reviews\/review-avid-hifi-ingenium-turntable\"\u003eRead More\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cimg style=\"margin-right: 16px; margin-bottom: 16px; float: left;\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0529\/7117\/6085\/files\/stereonet_1080x500_png.webp?v=1711193440\" width=\"130\" height=\"60\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\"If we slot all turntables into three bands of sonic goodness and light called budget, mid-priced and aspirational, an audition makes it clear that the Ingenium is poised just far enough to make it into the mid part of the mid-priced turntable category....

At just under 1,400 euros, the new entry-level turntable from Conrad Mas is significantly cheaper than its namesake. It is also more fully equipped and is hardly inferior to the Ingenium in terms of sound. Consequently, I have to give the little Brit a clear recommendation. The overall package of drive and pre-assembled combination of tonearm and pickup is actually really good. The result is an overall sound package that is worth listening to. And one that does not correspond so much to British understatement, but much more to that of an offensive fun machine. So you are happy to accept the slightly greater effort involved in assembly than the name Plug \u0026amp; Play might suggest.

Recently I found out about optional casters, which would make my life much easier—sometimes I have to move the free-standing rack, which requires me to first remove all the records. Unfortunately, the casters don't fit my original rack—Boltz has taken my and others' suggestion to greatly improve the design by extending the shelves' depth to 12\", so you can fill the entire rack instead of having to leave spaces for the uprights. I wanted a shelf with casters right away (three shelves, base, and casters, $699), but Boltz couldn't comply: their LP shelves are back-ordered because they can't make them fast enough.

Either way, unless you yearn for some specific coloration, the Avid will provide as spacious, bold, detailed, tuneful, and layered a performance as your front end is capable of; up to and somewhat beyond its price point.

More than that, I couldn’t even tell the difference, and you’ll rarely hear that admission from me. That doesn’t mean there are no differences. Other music or sharper ears might reveal them, but what this experiment tells me is that both analog and digital, when executed at a very high level, are converging on the limits of these original recordings.
