Bergmann Audio, founded in 2008 by Johnnie Bergmann Rasmussen in Hobro, Denmark, specialises in air-bearing turntables and tonearms, a technology the founder first sketched as a 22-year-old engineer years before finally building a working prototype more than a decade later, driven by a lifelong conviction that frictionless air bearings represented the correct engineering path for serious analogue playback.
Range & what it's known for
The lineup spans three main turntables - the original Sindre with its acrylic platter and integrated tangential air-bearing tonearm, the more accessible Magne aimed at buyers wanting entry-level access to genuine air-bearing performance, and the flagship Sleipner, whose six-layer plinth combines powdered granite-epoxy, aluminium and bitumen layers for resonance control, topped with a 20-plus-pound aluminium platter and a novel inverted-U platter cross-section that keeps the platter centred purely through differential air pressure rather than a conventional surrounding spindle.
Who owns it and where it's made
Bergmann Audio remains Danish-owned and founder-led, with all mechanical parts manufactured in-house at the company's workshop in Hobro on Denmark's Jutland Peninsula, and only a small number of components sourced from trusted local Danish suppliers.
The lineup in this catalog
Turntables and tonearms. Pricing spans roughly 20,000 dollars for the Magne to around 50,000 dollars for the flagship Sleipner system.
Who it's for
Bergmann Audio suits serious vinyl enthusiasts specifically drawn to frictionless air-bearing technology and novel Danish mechanical engineering, appealing to buyers willing to invest in a reference-tier analogue front end built almost entirely by hand in a small Danish workshop.
