Streaming and MP3 have changed
Streaming and MP3 have changed the music world, but vinyl and turntables are still around. The analog sound is even celebrating a renaissance. In Altdorf, Baden-Württemberg, the company Wirth Tonmaschinenbau manufactures exclusive turntables by hand. Karl Wirth is a tinkerer and perfectionist. His ingot turntables are made of solid aluminum. CNC machines ensure micrometer precision. He and his team assemble 25 individual parts, each polished to a high gloss, to create a high-end device. Not only visually a showpiece, but above all sonically.
The craftsmanship shows the elaborate manufacture of the individual parts, the secrets behind the smooth running and warm sound of the turntable: the cast bearing, for example, which allows the ten-kilo platter to turn smoothly, or the installation of the precision balls for the smooth movement of the tone arm.
Karl Wirth has more than 20 years of experience in turntable construction, yet he always prefers to rely on measurable findings. The finished pieces are checked through by computer. The ultimate test, however, remains the human ear, because Karl Wirth has not lost his fascination for analog sound over all these years.
