We are proud to share that the newly launched SME Model 35 has been awarded the Product of the Year by SoundStage! Last month, Jonathan Gorse from Soundstage reviewed the Model 35 featuring the new Series Vi tonearm and was full of praise. From its technical construction to the turntable’s stability and playback quality, the Model 35 impressed by setting new benchmarks for high-end audio.
“The SME Model 35 with its new Series Vi arm is an astonishing turntable. It offers world-class detail retrieval, rock-solid pitch stability, a gorgeously stable and believable soundstage, and the ability to track and retrieve deeper bass than you ever imagined could be pressed into a vinyl groove.”
