CELEBRITY AL DI MEOLA EDITION
The Celebrity Al Di Meola Edition from Clearaudio is a tribute to the award-winning American jazz guitarist. Inspired by his music and his passion for sound quality, this turntable is a masterpiece of technology and design.

The base of the turntable is made of a high-density fibreboard that was developed in close collaboration with Al Di Meola. Inside the device is the latest Clearaudio technology, including the innovative Tacho Speed Control (TSC) system. This continuous real-time control enables precise adaptation to changing factors such as belt speed and automatically performs a speed calibration every time the unit is switched on.

Minimized vibrations like the Jubilee
The multi-O-ring motor mount, known as IMS-Innova, minimizes vibration and ensures smooth playback. This proven design feature has been adopted from the Clearaudio Reference Jubilee turntable.

The unique design of the Celebrity turntable, which is strongly reminiscent of the Les Paul Gibson electric guitar design, combines functionality with a touch of elegance. The control knob serves as a multifunctional touchscreen knob. With just one press you can start the turntable, change the speed or switch to standby mode.

Strictly limited
The Celebrity turntable comes with a high-quality all-black or wood design. Each package is limited to 1,000 units and includes a specially numbered Collector's guitar pick. This work of art, created by Al Di Meola, Impex Records and Clearaudio, is more than just a turntable - it's a statement of exceptional sound and stylish design.

 

  • High-Density Wood Fiber Base: The turntable's body, crafted in the shape of an electric guitar, is made from a specially developed high-density fiberboard that reflects the close collaboration with Al Di Meola.
  • Tacho Speed Control (TSC) System: This advanced system continuously monitors and adjusts the speed in real-time, ensuring precise playback and automatically calibrating the speed with each startup.
  • Vibration Reduction with IMS-Innova: The Innovative Motor Suspension (IMS), inherited from Clearaudio's Reference Jubilee turntable, minimizes vibrations to maintain clear and smooth sound reproduction.
  • Multifunctional Touchscreen Knob: The control knob doubles as a multifunctional touch interface, allowing users to start the turntable, switch between 33 1/3 and 45 RPM speeds, or activate standby mode with a simple press.
  • Limited Edition: Only 1,000 units are available, each accompanied by a specially numbered guitar pick and a collector's edition of an Al Di Meola album. The turntable is available in elegant all-black or rosewood veneer finishes.
