AVID Volvere SP Turntable

Overachieving Component Brings You Spitting-Distance to Performance of AVID's Flagship Model

DSP Power Supply, Mighty AC Synchronous Motor, Massive Platter, Subtle Upgrades Help Ensure Reference-Level LP Playback, Natural Musicality, and Analog Bliss

AVID's sublime three-point-suspension Volvere turntable is trickle-down technology at its best. Equipped with many of the same engineering features, design principles, and overbuilt parts found in the company's flagship $25k Acutus Reference SP model, Volvere gives listeners the rare chance to come spitting-distance close to superlative analog playback at a cost many more music lovers can afford. The availability of such state-of-the-art innovation in a mid-level priced product is nearly unheard-of in both high-end audio or any other industry. Consider the Volvere the equivalent of getting most of Porsche speed and handling in a Chevrolet, or nearly all the perks of first-class airline service in coach. The strategy owes to AVID's dedication to the music you hear, and the manufacturer's steadfast refusal to compromise on any of its devices.

"Going through everything from Bob Dylan to Led Zeppelin again revealed the Volvere's ability to not only reveal the low bass grunt, but also reproduce the rest of the musical spectrum in a very tuneful and enjoyable way. The Volvere does a great job with music possessing inner detail and can rock when required."
– Jeff Dorgay, TONEAudio

Top-Down Technologies are Tested, Proven, Acclaimed
Volvere boasts the exact same design principles as the Acutus Reference SP. In short, the ‘table functions to remove stylus-borne vibrations from playback, keep mechanical noise to an absolute minimum, and provide isolation, speed stability, and rigidity. Volvere achieves these goals by clamping the record to the main bearing (the latter being the same design as the Acutus) that transmits vibration to the subchassis. Indeed, the Volvere clamping, stainless-steel bearing, and suspension systems are all derived from those on the Acutus. Tested, proven, and critically acclaimed, the technologies result in a freedom from resonant feedback, meaning you hear more information, a lower noise floor, pinpoint sound, and spot-on soundstaging every time you spin an LP.

"The Volvere delivers a substantial sound. Its forte is bass, which it delivers with a weight and power that's rare among turntables at this price...You want slam, grunt, girth even? You got it."
– Jason Kennedy, HiFi Choice

A Power Supply That's the Envy of the Industry 
Turntable accuracy and speed are thoroughly compromised without a great power supply. AVID preaches and practices this doctrine with every ‘table it makes. Volvere is no exception. An updated, split-phase quartz-locked, DSP signal-generating power supply controls frequency generation and allows exact adjustment of speed. It guarantees that you will hear reference-level timing, pacing, dynamics, and smoothness. Matched for the power supply, the Volvere's mighty AC synchronous motor drives--and controls--a massive 6.7kg platter. You might recognize this approach as opposite of nearly all other manufacturers, which opt for DC motor-driven ‘tables. It's another reason why Volvere impresses with natural musicality and extremely quiet operation.

Hear Music for the First Time
Volvere's build quality and meticulous engineering details are only part of the story. Its best asset may be the manner in which it gets out of the way and lets music come across with palpable transparency, definition, imaging, balance, and responsiveness. The ‘table is simple to set up and created to focus on what's within vinyl grooves. It looks gorgeous, yes, but this is an instrument solely concentrated on function and presentation. Substantial bass, crystal-clear treble, mouth-watering midrange, ample weight, Olympics-class power--Volvere delivers these aspects and more with an ease, effortlessness, and naturalness unrivaled in its price class.

First Enhancements Since Debut Means You Get Best-Sounding Volere Ever
Reviews of Volvere have glowed since its initial release more than a decade ago. But recently, AVID founder Conrad Mas discovered several ways to further improve the ‘table. This is the best-sounding Volvere yet. Its power supply is separated from the chassis, strengthening the latter by a whopping 700% and increasing its weight from 18mm MDF to 22mm MDF. A move to a larger toroidal transformer reduces noise even more. You'll hear more subtle microdynamics, low-level physicality, timbral complexity, quieter backgrounds, and overall expressive personality with the updated Volvere. AVID has truly outdone itself.
