The Ascona Neo opens up a new era in the history of Acoustic Signature. Its outstanding operational silence, explosive dynamics and fine sense of detail, is for many vinyl enthusiasts the end of a very long search for a utopian vinyl performance. Many of its attributes are attributed too and inherited from the Invictus Jr Neo and Acoustic Signatures flagship turntable the Invictus Neo.
