About the Acutus

The AVID Acutus turntable is designed for audiophiles seeking precision and musicality. It features a hand-built 24V 140mNm AC synchronous motor that provides ultimate control and stability, spinning the 10kg chrome-plated aluminum platter with twin round-section drive belts to minimize speed variations. The platter includes a 10mm aluminum disc with a resin mat that reflects vibration, enhancing sound clarity. The bearing is an inverted stainless steel spindle with a tungsten carbide ball and sapphire jewel, ensuring silent, maintenance-free operation. The suspension system is a three-point spring design with frequency adjustable vertical and lateral isolation, allowing for single or dual tonearm setups. The power supply uses DSP technology for accurate speed control and fine tuning, supporting 33⅓ and 45 RPM speeds. The Acutus supports SME template tonearms and offers adapters for single or twin tonearms. Its design emphasizes low noise floor, deep bass extension, and dynamic performance, making it a highly regarded turntable in its class.
