About clearaudio

clearaudio electronic GmbH is a manufacturer of analog high-end audio products based in Erlangen. The company produces turntables, tonearms, cartridges, and accessories, as well as electronics like phono preamplifiers. Manufacturing takes place as a manufactory in Erlangen, where engineering, material quality, and artisanal precision are combined. A technical feature is the patented magnetic levitation technology, which decouples components without contact; ultra-precise sapphire bearings and a Ceramic Magnetic Bearing (CMB) with a diamond-ground industrial ceramic shaft are also used. The portfolio is divided into Essential, Performance, and Reference Lines, covering entry-level to reference class. The products are exported internationally; in 2024, the company received the Bavarian Export Award in the Crafts category. clearaudio also gained recognition through collaborations such as with ELAC.
