Clearaudio opens the door to genuine high-end vinyl performance with the ready-to-play Compass turntable: a compact, uncompromising, and accessible solution. The result of over two years of development, the Compass turntable distills the full fascination of analog sound reproduction for those who want to listen to music and truly feel it.
Focus on the Essentials
To make high-quality vinyl enjoyment possible at this price, Clearaudio concentrated their expertise on the elements that matter most to sound quality. At the heart of the Compass lies a precision bearing combined with a meticulously crafted platter and sub-platter system. Added to this are the new T1 tonearm – a compact version of the proven Satisfy tonearm – and the specially developed N1 MM cartridge. Together, they create a sound experience that far exceeds the highest expectations.
Where Sound Meets Craftsmanship
Every acoustically relevant component, from tonearm and cartridge to bearing, is manufactured with utmost care at Clearaudio's facility in Erlangen. Precisely machined parts, selected materials, and a design focused on embodying the Clearaudio signature quality: handmade in Germany.
Perfectly Minimalist Design
The Compass impresses not only with its sound but also with its clear design language. Available in black or silver, its look blends purist elegance with technical sophistication. A solid steel plate on the underside ensures stability and supports low-resonance performance. A high-quality acrylic dust cover, featuring stainless steel hinges, protects the turntable without compromising its design.
Unbox. Set Up. Turn Up.
The Clearaudio Compass comes fully assembled and ready to play, providing an immediate entry into the world of high-fidelity music enjoyment. A convenient toggle switch located on the underside of the turntable allows you to select the desired speed. The precisely engineered tonearm is lowered gently using its turned aluminum cueing lever. Additionally, height-adjustable feet with integrated decoupling ensure optimal resonance control during operation.
