Connecting you with the brands you love

Think of us as your personal advisors – enthusiastic experts, passionate about the world of high-end audio, providing you with our objective advice in a complex marketplace.

We believe our mission is to introduce you to the brands and products we work with, and to share with you what it is about them that so excites us.

How do we achieve this?

Firstly, the faithful communication of sound demands an investment in time and energy if it is to engage fully with the heart as well as the head.

So we set out to explain in words and imagery what impresses us about the performance and the aesthetic quality of the equipment we recommend. Hopefully, you’ll grasp why it has earned our admiration and led us to throw behind it the weight of our formidable experience in the field.

Then we’ll aim to consolidate your initial interest by demonstrating how the system’s specifications translate into music (which is, after all, the emotional benefit of all great audio science and design).

In short, we’re here to make sure that you invest wisely in your hifi so that you enjoy fully that deep, emotional response that is the true purpose of all music.

That’s why we’re confident that the brands we so meticulously research and recommend for your attention are the ones you will love.

Stillpoints Adapters

Stillpoints

If you have a device that has direct contact from top to bottom, (12 o’clock to 6 o’clock) like single bearing devices, no matter what the materials used, it is damping — not isolating.

True isolation does not have a direct path between surfaces. Stillpoints patented technology stacks bearings such that there is no direct contact between the component and the surface upon which it rests.

Our services

Lowering the Noise Floor

Perfect sound reproduction is a tricky art. The products we champion at Airt all aim to make the recorded audio listening experience as close to perfection as possible. Perfection is, of course, subjective, but what is key to achieving the best possible reproduction of sound, regardless of one’s idea of perfection, is to lower the noise floor throughout the audio signal chain.
