Concentration on the essentials
In order to enable high-quality vinyl enjoyment in this price class, we have focused our know-how on what is acoustically relevant. The heart is formed by a precise bearing in conjunction with an exactly manufactured platter-sub-platter system. Added to this are the new tonearm T1, a compact version of our proven Satisfy tonearm, as well as the specially developed MM cartridge N1 – a combination that enables a listening experience that goes far beyond the expectations of the compact class.
Compact elegance: The compass in timeless black.
Sound meets craftsmanship
Every acoustically critical component – from the tonearm via the cartridge to the bearing – is manufactured with the utmost care in our manufactory in Erlangen. Precision-machined components, selected materials and a construction designed for longevity stand for clearaudio-typical quality “handmade in Germany”.
Perfect protection: The high-quality acrylic cover preserves the purist design.
Perfect simplicity of form
The compass is convincing not only in terms of sound, but also through its clear formal language. Available in the colours black and silver, its design combines purist elegance with technical sophistication. The massive steel plate on the underside ensures stability and supports low-resonance playback behaviour. A high-quality acrylic dust cover with stainless steel hinges protects the turntable without disrupting the design.
