Naim has announced the release of the Special Edition Solstice Collection, featuring the first turntable in the hi-fi brand’s nearly half-century of manufacturing.
The Special Edition Collection includes the belt-drive Solstice turntable; the Aro Mk2 tonearm; an Equinox MC cartridge; a Solstice Series Phono Stage; a Solstice Series Power Supply and bespoke accessories set.
Naim has teamed up with turntable specialist Clearaudio to produce the Solstice, taking advantage of the German manufacturer's extensive experience with record players.
Clearaudio will manufacture the Solstice’s deck, arm and cartridge while the phono stage and power supply will be built by Naim in Salisbury, UK.
