TRANSROTOR: The Pinnacle of German Turntable Craftsmanship

TRANSROTOR is Germany’s oldest and most respected turntable manufacturer, with over 40 years of unwavering dedication to audio perfection. Since 1971, the company—founded and led by Jochen Räke—has been handcrafting some of the world’s most exquisite turntables from its home in Bergisch Gladbach, Germany.

In 1976, TRANSROTOR redefined the high-end audio landscape with the introduction of its groundbreaking acrylic glass turntable, setting a new benchmark in design and performance. A decade later, the release of the iconic TRANSROTOR Classic and Quintessence models, each featuring a trio of star-shaped drive motors, further cemented the brand’s reputation for innovation and excellence. Entering the new millennium, the debut of the ARTUS turntable, complete with magnetic drive technology, reaffirmed TRANSROTOR’s relentless pursuit of audio engineering mastery.

Driven by a passion for precision, a deep understanding of advanced technology, and a forward-looking vision, TRANSROTOR continues to produce its turntables in custom, limited-production series. Each unit is built to order, with a typical delivery time of around six weeks—a wait that discerning audiophiles agree is well worth it.

But TRANSROTOR’s commitment goes beyond manufacturing. The company holds itself to the highest standards of service, offering meticulous care and respect in repairs and support—ensuring that each turntable not only sounds exceptional but endures for generations.
