PTP Audio make a unique line of turntables. Unlike 99% of the turntables currently made, the ones from PTP Audio are idler-wheel driven, a principle that guarantees unbelievable musicality and powerful dynamics. To achieve this, we take the drive system from a vintage Lenco, restore it to its former glory, and combine it with the best modern technology has to offer. Such as an extremely stiff base, laser-cut from stainless steel and an elegant plinth, made from solid CNC-machined composite material. The result is a turntable that combines the sonic signature of an idler drive with the looks and reliability of today.
All PTP Audio products are made to order and assembled by hand for each individual customer. This advertisement is only an example. Look at www.ptpaudio.com or email us at [email protected] for more options.

What the press thinks:
Stereophile
"The combination delivered everything I need (...): punch, drive, force, color, richness and pure emotional and visceral involvement."
"Revelation followed revelation throughout my first afternoon with the Solid12."
"The essential musical rightness and sheer availability and affordability of PTP Audio's Solid12 can't be overstated."
6moons
"From the very first tone on it was clear how this really was no ordinary turntable. It showed well defined attacks, plucked basss without any smearing whatsoever and profoundly deep bass. Sustains just kept hovering in mid air like lazy angels and then again that bass heavy of weight and texture would intrude without being artificially enhanced at all."
"What we heard and experienced from the first track on with the Solid12 was its ability to communicate the intention of the music. The emotions captured in the grooves were present throughout the entire reviewing period."
Fidelity Magazine (Germany)
"What emerged is a fantastic turntable, which is absolutely without competition at this price level."
"The turntable sounds neutral in the best sense of the word, is very quiet, with a very low noise floor. It is dynamic when necessary and does so with the highest resolution."

6moons liked the Solid12 so much they gave it a Blue Moon Award.
Stereophile have included the Solid12 in their Recommended Component list.

What the owners think:
"This is without doubt the best record player that I have ever heard. And I am familiar with many of them..."
"The other turntables mentioned are not even close to producing the liveliness and presence provided by the PTP Audio Solid."
"If anyone is thinking about upgrading their vinyl front-end, the PTP Audio Solid should be on the shortlist!"
"I've had quite a few turntables in the past, but never had one running so quietly, so deeply noiseless and with an amazingly perfect tonal balance. Additionally it's perfectly handcrafted and meets high aesthetic demands as well."
"When I first hooked up the Solid9 I was actually stunned with the overall fullness, dynamics and drive. It honestly gave me goosebumps."
"When I played the first record my jaw dropped. During the evening I played record after record in an attempt to find flaws. It was impossible."
