Taking the time to develop everything from scratch, Dr. Feickert finally ended up with a nicely compact and elegant new turntable. This new design has all virtues the German brand is famous for - perfect neutrality, elegance in appearance and build quality, to name only a few.

Dr Feickert Turntables are made in Germany.

The Volare is offered in Black and Walnut. The Turntable can be purchased with or without a tonearm. We offer the Turntable with the optional Origin Live Silver MK 4 Tonearm as recommended by Dr Feickert. No cartridge is supplied.

Steve Huff review:

"The turntable has been rock solid offering up a sound that is pure analog. Whatever Dr. Feickert is doing here, well, it’s being done right as I have not heard anything near this good with my analog…ever. It’s why I never reviewed a table and why this is the first pricey table I am writing about. It is the only one that I felt was worth the cost and investment. It kept me from selling my vinyl and has allowed me to enjoy my albums in a way that brings me back to the days when all I did was play records in my bedroom as a teen."

Soundstage Hifi review:

"But I can’t imagine that any prospective buyer’s two shortest-list choices for a turntable would ever come down to the VPI and the Dr. Feickert Analogue. The Volare’s small size is no doubt one of its biggest selling features. Maybe the biggest news here is that the Volare has no downside. Let’s hear it for the little guy."

Stereonet review - Origin Live MK 4 Tonearm:

“The overall effect is quite a thing to hear; there’s no sense that you’re listening to a tonearm of this modest price, or anywhere near it. I’ve reviewed most of its close rivals over the years – Origin Live Silver Mk4 beats them all, to my ears.”

PRODUCT INFORMATION

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

All the core components used in the bigger model lines underwent an evaluation if they suit the new design approach. It turned out that all of them had to undergo a complete redesign.

Testing and refining recursively ended up in this new design that will be a benchmark not only in its price range of products. As the universal sliding arm board mechanism could not be transferred to the Volare still there is an easy way to swap to other tonearms almost on-the-fly at a low cost in a short time.

The new chassis topology is focused on high mass in the center of the bearing. This new bearing is extremely stiff and robust as well as being a low-friction design. High inner inertia and an oil bath wet sump approach make this bearing a perfect partner to the high-torque motor design resulting in low rumble and smooth operation.
