TA-7000 NEO Review
This tonearm can be called “The Feather”. The bearings and fit-and-finish are so smooth and refined that there is a barely perceptible feel of the arm when it is moved by hand.

The Montana NEO combination broadcasts multiple opposing elements accurately at the same time, and there is no need to choose one or the other, which is an expression of quality.
It’s a well-built machine that’s dead-quiet, fast off the mark, super-resolving, and uber-lively. In short, it’s a maximally great turntable well worth checking out. Gut gemacht!
A remarkable achievement. Acoustic Signature’s Maximus Neo Turntable, TA-1000 Tonearm, and MCX3 Cartridge.

Yesterday, I spoke at length on the phone with Robert Hagemann of Acoustic Signature, the notable German manufacturer of top-tier turntables, tonearms, cartridges, phono preamps, record clamps, and other related accessories.
At first glance, not only are the Acoustic Signature production halls big, the considerable inventory level of aluminum and other materials leads one to the conclusion that completely different things are manu- factured here in addition to turntables and tonearms.
In the eye of the hurricane, utmost peace and quiet are known to be found. With the Hurricane Neo from Acoustic Signature, we encountered a turntable whose bulletproof housing shrugs off any onslaught. The true refinement, however, lies in its bright solutions.
Acoustic Signature is not an overnight sensation, nor are its turntables driven by dental floss. If you’re not a Frank Zappa fan, you probably have no idea what any of that means, so please Google it.
Acoustic Signature has been updating its turntables, and its Torando Neo proves that analog excellence is achieved not by casting magic spells, but by deploying sophisticated technology.
