Sound News – Gold Award
“No matter from what angle I’m looking at, AMP-23R stood out as a better sounding unit, winning top points on 6 out of 7 tests and proving that specs aren’t always that important.”
“I’ve heard plenty of great sounding solid-state amplifiers by now, but none of them were crawling under my skin as soon as music started doing its mojo. Its different working principle was felt immediately. My tunes were revitalized, freed from any limitations, transients were riding a roller-coaster as if a (much) bigger amplifier was pushing and pulling them around.”

Product Description
Experience Next-Level Vinyl Playback with the Magnezar Turntable
The Magnezar turntable is a true showcase of advanced audio engineering, designed for listeners who demand uncompromising precision and performance. Its platter levitates entirely on permanent magnets—eliminating mechanical contact and friction—for exceptionally smooth rotation. A whisper-quiet direct drive motor ensures stable speed and superb sound clarity, while liquid damping enhances balance and vibration control.
With its automatic clamping system, the Magnezar perfectly flattens every record—both at the center and the edge—for optimal playback. It also supports dual tonearms, including compatibility with Klaudio’s tangential tonearm and laser pod (available separately).
Key Features:
- Magnetically levitated platter for frictionless rotation
- Ultra-quiet direct drive motor for precise speed stability
- Ultra-quiet direct drive motor for precise speed stability
- Liquid-based stabilization and integrated illumination
- Electronic braking for controlled stops
- Automatic spindle and edge clamping system

Additional Details
The Magnezar Turntable by Klaudio sets a new benchmark in high-end audio performance. Built with advanced direct-drive technology and a magnetically levitated platter, it delivers stunning accuracy, near-silent operation, and an exceptionally smooth listening experience.
Direct Motor & Drive by Klaudio
Equipped with Klaudio’s 45-pole brushless direct motor, the Magnezar ensures ultra-quiet performance (0.02–0.05% Wow) and remarkable speed precision (±1/1000 RPM). Designed for ease of use, it requires no adjustments—just a simple click to start or stop playback. An integrated electromagnetic brake brings the platter to a full stop in under four seconds. The motor’s seamless integration of the stator within the plinth and the rotor within the platter ensures flawless rotational stability.
Heavy Magnetically Levitated Platter
The Magnezar’s standout feature is its 44-pound (20 kg) platter—100% magnetically levitated, eliminating the need for a thrust bearing. This innovative design, developed by Klaudio, achieves true frictionless rotation at an unprecedented weight class. The magnetic suspension replaces conventional cushioned feet, creating a single, highly effective isolation system that maintains balance while minimizing vibration and resonance.
Rim Inertial Platter
Built for serious audiophiles, the Magnezar Turntable offers remarkable playback stability through its heavy, well-balanced construction—totaling approximately 121 lbs (55 kg). Its intelligently engineered platter features a hollow center design that shifts weight toward the rim, achieving the same powerful inertial effect as a much heavier solid platter. The result is superior rotational consistency and smoother, distortion-free sound reproduction.
Automatic LP Clamping Functions (spindle: 1.5 kg, peripheral: 4.2 kg)
The Magnezar Turntable features an advanced clamping system designed to eliminate LP wobble and maintain precise cartridge tracking. Unlike traditional vacuum or ring clamps that require manual setup, this intelligent mechanical clamp engages automatically whenever the tonearm is positioned above the record. A built-in sensor detects disc compatibility for worry-free operation, and the system can be easily disabled—either completely or for the spindle only—depending on user preference.
Stylus Protection
The Magnezar Turntable incorporates an adjustable clamp mechanism that safeguards the stylus, preventing it from making contact with the peripheral clamp. This ensures the needle stays perfectly aligned between the record’s first track and the outer clamp for safe, accurate playback.
Liquid Stabilizer on the Platter
Adding both function and elegance, the integrated liquid system not only enhances the visual appeal but also helps absorb minor record imbalances—contributing to improved platter stability and smoother rotation.
Tangential Tonearm, 12-inch Equivalent, Auto-Lift *Nickel*
Experience precision playback with Klaudio’s KD-ARM-AP12 tangential tonearm—engineered for effortless operation and outstanding accuracy. Featuring electronic lift and descent controls, the arm can be raised or lowered with a simple button press and automatically lifts at the end of a record for smooth, worry-free performance.
Unlike traditional linear arms, Klaudio’s true mechanical tangential tonearm achieves 0° tracking error without the need for complex air-bearing systems. It glides longitudinally on ultra-precise bearings, keeping the stylus perfectly tangent to the groove. The included laser-projection tool allows users to visually confirm precise alignment for professional-grade accuracy.
Installation is refreshingly straightforward compared to conventional tonearms. There’s no need to calculate overhang, null points, or anti-skating—cartridge setup is fast, tool-free, and visually guided with the included alignment laser. (Note: the laser setup is optional and not required for operation.)
Despite its pivoting design, the KD-ARM-AP12 supports a wide range of cartridges without relying on proprietary headshells. It accommodates various cartridge weights, sizes, and designs, and comes complete with two interchangeable Klaudio headshells for maximum flexibility.
