Overview

Kronos Pro is the foundational reference platform that defined the brand’s approach to counter-rotational analogue playback. Introduced in 2011 as a breakthrough design, it established new standards in speed stability, resonance control, and mechanical balance.

Built as a strictly limited production of 250 units, Kronos Pro remains a highly sought-after reference. Select demonstration and factory-approved pre-owned examples continue to be available through authorized distributors.
