Проигрыватели виниловых дисков — Auris Audio Auris Classica

The Auris Classica S is a belt drive turntable produced by Auris Audio in Serbia and supplied with the 10 inch W10 tonearm already mounted. Auris presents the Classica as a package that provides everything needed to start playing records once a cartridge is chosen, since the turntable is delivered without one. Auris lists it at EUR 1,199 including tax. Isolation from vibration and stable footing are central themes in how the maker describes the design.

Key specs that matter

Speeds are 33.3 and 45 rpm, controlled by the included EON PSU, with a quoted speed variance of plus or minus 0.11% at both settings. The platter is 299 mm aluminium, and the main bearing combines a bronze cylinder around a ceramic ball. The W10 arm has an effective mass of 12 g, an overhang of 18 mm, a tilt angle of 24 degrees and a downforce range of 5 to 40 mN. Recommended cartridge compliance runs from 6 to 14 g. The deck measures 445 x 360 x 140 mm and weighs 7.9 kg.

Engineering and use context

Rotation is supplied by a 16 V to 24 V AC synchronous motor governed by dedicated PCB electronics, with the EON PSU handling speed control. The base is aluminium, fitted with a chrome axle and a sub platter topped by a cemented carbide metal plate. A bronze main hub central bearing is used for durability over long service. The W10 is designed with 3D CAD/CAM tools and precision made on CNC machines. Its counterweight is specially engineered with a rubber thread to damp vibration. Ball bearings sourced from the medical industry keep clearances in the arm minimal, and the carbon fibre wand has an ultra thin wall of 1 mm, which Auris says reduces vibration and resonance. The W10-s version adds 10 mm of VTA adjustment, which Auris links to compatibility with various turntable mats. The feet use a rubber compound engineered for stability, and the stand can be adjusted precisely so the deck sits horizontally on its support.

Pairing

The 12 g effective mass together with the 6 to 14 g compliance window sets the range of cartridges the W10 is meant to carry. The deck has no built in preamplification, so its signal must pass through phono equalization in the amplifier or in an external unit.
