Genuin Audio is a German high-end brand founded in 2013 and run by Thomas Wendt in Cottbus. It is unusual in covering a full chain under one name, from turntables, tonearms and cartridges to a music server, a digital preamplifier, cables and DSP-controlled active loudspeakers.
Range & what it's known for
The analogue side consists of the drive turntable, the point tonearm, the sting moving-coil cartridge and the pearl phono preamplifier. The drive uses three synchronous motors with a triple-pulley arrangement and a 10mm sleeve bearing with a tungsten carbide ball, weighs 22kg and comes in black or silver. As a complete package with point, sting and pearl it was announced at EUR 19,900. The digital side includes the tars music server and the next preamplifier. Speakers are the active neo, ava and alex. The neo pairs a 16.5cm coaxial driver with a 30cm woofer working below 180Hz, driven by a four-channel 1,000W amplifier and a 32-bit DSP that replaces a passive crossover.
Who owns it and where it's made
Genuin Audio is owned by Thomas Wendt. Rather than running a large in-house factory, the company commissions specialist developers to design each component exclusively for the brand, and specialised German workshops build the products by hand.
The lineup in this catalog
Active loudspeakers ava and neo with 1,000W of built-in amplification, the tars music server, the drive belt-drive turntable with POM platter, the point unipivot tonearm, the sting MC cartridge with boron tube cantilever and the pearl phono stage with balanced input.
Who it's for
Genuin Audio can supply a whole system from one German source, with a digital and an analogue front end plus speakers. One way in is the tars server or the neo speakers, with the drive analogue chain added later. It is a niche choice sold through selected specialist retailers.
