The Acoustic Solid Machine Small R is the entry-level model of Acoustic Solid’s Machine line — a simplified version of the more substantial Solid Machine — yet it retains all the essential features that define the quality of the renowned German brand. This turntable stands out for its ultra-precise, in-house developed “zero tolerance” bearing and a hefty 50 mm thick aluminium platter, engineered to effectively dampen any residual imperfections in motor rotation. Its construction is solid and flawless, a testament to German engineering that values robustness, functionality, and long-lasting performance.
Unlike its higher-end sibling, the Machine Small R features three independently adjustable spikes for height adjustment, ensuring stable support on virtually any surface. For more delicate surfaces, special felt pads are included. Although it is positioned as an entry-level model, this turntable should not be underestimated: it delivers impressive bass with surprising depth and clarity, while the midrange remains airy and transparent, offering excellent rhythmic coherence and a musicality that immediately engages the listener.
The sonic performance is smooth and precise, with remarkable ability to reveal the finest details of analogue recordings. This turntable is suitable both for seasoned audiophiles and for those approaching high-fidelity analogue playback for the first time, thanks to its high performance, expandability, and durable construction. With the potential to incorporate features from higher-end models, the Machine Small R is a smart choice for those seeking a top-quality foundation without compromising the signature excellence of Acoustic Solid.
