The Dragon was designed to get the most out of your vinyl collection and transport you to the studio where the music was recorded. Every single detail of this high-end turntable has been developed with superior technology and appealing, individual features to create an excellent soundstage, captivating dynamics, and pure audio reproduction that will enthral you every time you listen.

Exceptionally quiet design

To capture even the most subtle nuances of the recording and ensure you hear every note, the Dragon's high-torque AC synchronous motor is housed in a mechanically separate enclosure. In combination with the integrated motor electronics and a unique triple-belt drive, this prevents motor vibrations from entering the audio signal, so you hear nothing but the record.
