Busy times at AVID.

We’re hard at work fulfilling the latest Ingenium SE orders — with power supplies currently in production and making their way through the workshop.

Every unit is carefully assembled and tested to ensure the performance, reliability, and musicality expected from AVID.

Thank you to everyone supporting the new Ingenium SE.

“Why Most Audio Shows Fail”

Most audio shows leave listeners confused.

Unfamiliar rooms. Unknown systems. Endless expensive equipment with little understanding of why one component matters more than another.

On June 20th, AVID will do something different at Reference Audio in Witham, Essex.

Instead of simply playing music, we’ll guide listeners through a carefully structured demonstration using three turntables, amplifiers and loudspeakers — progressively upgrading each stage so you can clearly hear and understand the improvements.

Not hype.
Not guesswork.
Real musical understanding.

If you’ve ever wondered where upgrades truly make the biggest difference, this is an event not to miss.

June 20th
Reference Audio – Witham, Essex

More details coming soon.

It’s another weekend, and another great review to enjoy.

This time, the stunning Relveo takes centre stage as The Listening Chair recently put it through its paces: and the results speak for themselves.

A beautifully engineered turntable delivering the musicality, precision, and engagement that vinyl lovers crave.

Have a read and discover why the Relveo continues to impress listeners around the world.

AVID HiFi was founded by Conrad Mas near Cambridge, England in 1995. Conrad’s interest in designing turntables goes back to 1977, when a friend showed him a DIY turntable and declared it to be “perfect.” Conrad thought differently. In 1999, he introduced the Acutus, a design featuring a suspen...

RELVEO - NEW REVIEW

"He still has it: Conrad Mas’s new turntable design plays expressively, transparently, and technically at the highest level – even without a true subchassis."

WEEKEND READ....

Another review in, and once again the Relveo continues to demonstrate exactly what it was designed to do.

What stands out isn’t just the technical praise—though there’s plenty of that—but the consistent recognition of its musical integrity. The way it resolves detail without ever losing coherence, the stability of the presentation, and that unmistakable sense of control… it all comes together to create something that simply connects you to the performance.

This is not about chasing hi-fi effects. It’s about extracting the maximum from the groove in a way that feels natural, effortless, and complete.

Relveo was developed with a clear goal: to bring reference-level engineering and performance into a more accessible space without compromise. Reviews like this confirm we’re on the right path.

If you haven’t experienced it yet, now might be the time.
