The X2 B features our revolutionary True Balanced Connection

We’re launching a whole line of new “True Balanced Connection” components that feature a balanced connection for your phono setup. The X2 B shows off this brand new phono technology.

Turntables look back on a long history. Over time, many things have changed, not only from technical possibilities, but also from the environment. Wireless networks are omni present and countless electronic devices make your home „smarter“. This means there are now a lot of additional electromagnetic fields, which could interfere with your turntable‘s signal. This was simply not the case 30 years ago. To ensure the best connection to your phono preamplifier we designed our „True Balanced Connection“.

What's True Balanced?

Balanced audio connections are usually known from the professional sector like recording studios or live concerts. It is very important to have a stable & interference free connection, as these signals will be highly amplified. The same applies to the connection from your turntable to the phono preamplifier. The big advantage of a balanced connection is its ability to remove picked up noise and interferences. And best of all, cartridges by nature are already balanced signal transducers! With True Balanced your are simply using everything, literally everything, that your cartridge is picking up from the record groove. You are not throwing away half of the usable signal, like is done in typical single-ended RCA phono connections.

The X2 B comes with mini XRL and RCA outputs and with our standard semi-balanced Connect it Phono E RCA cable. By upgrading it to our fully balanced mini XLR to mini XLR version (available separately) and using a balanced phono stage, like our Phono Box S3 B or DS3 B, you are fully set-up for the True Balanced experience. This leads to increased dynamics, less noise and improved signal to noise ratios. You can imagine it, like hearing parts of your music that literally were not there before.

True Balanced

Unleash the full power

Connect your X2 B with one of our new True Balanced Phono Cables to your phono preamp and benefit from an interference-free signal with increased dynamics & lower noise level.

Mini XLR Output

One cable connects it all

We offer a wide range of balanced phono cables with different connectors to fit all our phono preamps. If you want to use your X2 B with a Phono Box S3 B you need a „Connect it Phono Mini XLR / Mini XLR“.

Balanced Preamps

A perfect match!

Pair your X2 B with one of our new balanced Phono Boxes and benefit from a fully balanced signal transmission to your phonp preamplifier. Check out our new Phono Box S3 B & DS3 B for further information.

EISA Award for True Balanced

Cartridges are balanced signal transducers by nature! Due to the internal wiring of MM cartridges, you'll need a MC cartridge to access the entirety of that balanced signal. The X2 B comes with an Ortofon Quintet Red MC cartridge factory aligned, and together with our new True Balanced Connection cables and our balanced phono stages you'll be able to access high-end features that were previously only available in the most expensive hifi categories. In combination with our Phono Box S3 B and X2 B, our True Balanced concept won the prestigious EISA Award for best Vinyl System!

The X2 B retains all the real high-end features the original X2 had on offer.

Azimuth & VTA

Fully adjustable

The X2 B comes with fully adjustable Azimuth & VTA. It offers you the possibility to modify your X2 as you want it.

Quintet Red

High-end MC cartridge

The Ortofon Quintet Red is an all-purpose cartridge that delivers open, dynamic sound with a slight touch of warmth & is the perfect partner for our new X2 B.

2 kg Platter

Resonance free acryl

The perfect platform to place your precious vinyl records, guaranteeing absolute reliability in its performance and sonic character.

33/45/78 RPM

High precision motor control

A sophisticated DC/AC generator board generates clean and stable power to drive the motor. Easily change speed with the push of only a single button.

New motor suspension

A good motor by itself, is already very quiet. To get the best performance out of it, we have improved the motor suspension. The X2 B‘s motor chassis is carefully balanced and suspended on a precision tuned TPE belt - this way the motor chassis is effectively decoupled from the main plinth for optimal performance.

9'' Carbon-Aluminium Tonearm

Compared with its little brother the X1 B, the tonearm is longer - 9“ in length - and the tube has a wider diameter. The carbon/aluminium sandwhich construction results in better internal damping. The increased mass makes the tonearm an excellent fit for low compliance MC cartridges.

Metal Feet

Damped & height adjustable

The three height adjustable damped aluminium feet guarantee the perfect stand & massively reduce risk of acoustical feedback.

The Tonearm

9'' Carbon-Aluminium Tonearm

Finished as a one-piece, with no resonance-inducing headshell, the X2 B can also be set for azimuth and VTA adjustment. The tonearm is then supplied with a TPE-damped counterweight.

Made in EU

Since 1991

Made in Europe by a turntable factory with decades of experience, it is a true hi-fi turntable which using our new True Balanced Connections takes your vinyl hobby to the next level.

A top-tier gaming monitor that exceeds expectations in every way!
Size: 27"
The SAMSUNG 27" Odyssey G65B is hands down one of the best gaming monitors I’ve ever owned. If there were an option to give more than 5 stars, this product would absolutely earn 7! From its stunning QHD resolution to the ultra-smooth 240Hz refresh rate, this monitor has redefined my gaming experience. First, let’s talk about the display quality. The QHD resolution combined with HDR 600 creates incredibly vibrant and lifelike visuals. Colors are rich, blacks are deep, and the contrast is outstanding. Whether I’m playing fast-paced shooters or exploring immersive RPG worlds, the level of detail and clarity is second to none. The 1000R curve pulls you into the action, making gameplay more immersive and natural for your field of vision. After hours of gaming, I experienced less eye strain compared to flat monitors, which is a huge plus. The 240Hz refresh rate and 1ms response time (GTG) make this monitor a dream for competitive gaming. The responsiveness is flawless, and I noticed an immediate improvement in how fluid gameplay feels. There’s no ghosting, screen tearing, or input lag, even in the most intense gaming sessions. It’s perfect for FPS games like Call of Duty or Valorant, where every millisecond counts. One of the standout features is the built-in Gaming Hub. I was able to stream games directly without even needing my PC or console turned on—a convenience I didn’t realize I needed until now. The user interface is intuitive, and the hub is packed with options, making this monitor as versatile as it is powerful. Another fantastic addition is the array of connectivity options. With multiple HDMI and DisplayPort inputs, along with USB ports, this monitor can handle all your devices with ease. I have it connected to my PC, PS5, and even a streaming device, and switching between them is seamless. Build quality is excellent, with a premium feel that matches the performance. The monitor stand is sturdy and highly adjustable, allowing you to tilt, swivel, and height-adjust to find the perfect viewing angle. The sleek design and thin bezels add a modern touch to any gaming setup. Setting it up was a breeze. The box was well-packaged, and the monitor itself was easy to assemble. Samsung’s attention to detail is evident even in the setup process. Delivery was also smooth and timely, ensuring everything arrived in perfect condition. In conclusion, the Samsung Odyssey G65B is a masterpiece of gaming technology. It checks every box for gamers—stunning visuals, exceptional performance, and advanced features. It’s worth every penny and then some. If you’re serious about gaming, this monitor will elevate your experience to an entirely new level. I cannot recommend it highly enough!

Absolutely great curved monitor for his PC. Samsung, top of the line can't go wrong!
Size: 32"
Bought this for my son's birthday / Christmas present because they are so close together. I think it was only about three or $400. But it is the Samsung which is a top rate item. And it has a curved screen for better viewing. That's what he wanted so that's what he got! LOL he said it works greatly and you can adjust so many settings such as the brightness the sound and everything else. Good size too! 32 inches that's like a TV screen LOL

Worst interface on the market. A sadist designed it.
Size: 32"
Great screen. The absolute worst interface in the business. Who in their right mind would want their monitor to change inputs on a whim? Who would design a 6 step process to change that input back? Samsung did. I wish I had spent my hard earned money elsewhere. I waste more time fixing this stupid monitor then I do enjoying the games I play on it. It's nightmare fuel.

Smart Features Overkill (for me)
Size: 32"
This monitor arrived promptly and undamaged. The picture quality is excellent, and the refresh rate has my games looking silky-smooth. If it was a normal monitor without smart features, I would give it 5 stars. The smart capabilities make this somewhat obnoxious from time to time. I just had an update (that prompted this review) that had a pop-up box telling me Samsung policies have been updated, but I was unable to dismiss it with my mouse or keyboard. I had to wait for it to time out or use the remote. There are also countdown screens during boot-up and shut-down that can be annoying at times, though to be fair, I have not attempted to disable them. It also occasionally just likes to pop up notifications that aren't from my computer about input or monitor settings (not pc display settings). It's really a pretty small nuisance, but after a few months sometimes has me wishing I had just dropped the cash on a nicer 4k monitor w/out smart capabilities. I would imagine it being quite convenient in a dorm or small apartment setting if you were also using it as a smart tv on a regular basis. Not a bad product by any means, just a few extra bells and whistles that occasionally get in the way of how I typically use it. I picked it up on sale for right around $400 and feel that was fair. If I had to pay more, I would probably make the jump to 4k and shop at that higher price point instead.

Its a TV too!
Size: 32"
I got this monitor for my computer for the most part. Excellent quality Colors are great, no dead pixels on arrival. Bright and easy to see. Comes with a remote which I thought was strange and put it aside for a few months. Then when I found the remote again I played with it and realized this was also a TV!! So for the price it is an amazing gaming monitor and a smart tv on top of that this is great value for the money. The curve may make it difficult to see as a tv if you are in a large space but for what it is made for there is no problem at all. And you can adjust if you do move around the room.
