Clearaudio Compass 是德國品牌 Clearaudio 於 2025 年新推出的入門級黑膠唱盤。其主要賣點在於以更親民的價格，提供品牌一貫的德國原廠製造品質與高階技術下放，特別適合黑膠新手或追求高性價比的玩家。
以下是 Clearaudio Compass 的核心賣點：
1. 德國製造與精準工藝
100% 德國開發製造：於 Clearaudio 位於 Erlangen 的工廠手工打造，確保耐用性與高標準精度。
低諧振結構設計：底盤採用中密度木纖維（MDF）結合底部鋼板的「三明治結構」，增加重量（總重約 8.4kg）並有效消除干擾震動。
高精度轉盤系統：配備 20mm 厚的壓克力轉盤及 CNC 加工的鋁製子轉盤，搭配拋光鋼軸與燒結青銅襯套，提供極穩定的轉速精度（誤差僅 0.05%）。
2. 全新開發的高階配件組合
全新 T1 唱臂：專為 Compass 設計，是品牌經典 Satisfy 唱臂的緊湊版本，全金屬構造並配有外部防滑調節。
專屬 N1 唱頭：標配全新 N1 動磁（MM）唱頭，具備橢圓唱針與鋁製懸臂，能輸出 3.3mV 的信號，音質清晰且細節豐富。
Direct Wire PLUS 佈線：唱臂內部採用高品質線材，確保類比信號傳輸的完整性。
3. 使用體驗與聲音表現
即拆即用 (Ready-to-play)：出廠時已完成組裝與基礎調校，用家只需開箱、接線即可播放，簡化了黑膠系統的複雜設定。
寬闊深邃的音場：權威音響雜誌評測指出，其聲音具有良好的空間感與透明度，低音表現尤其靈敏且精確。
操作簡便：底座設有切換 33 ⅓ 與 45 RPM 轉速的撥桿，並附帶高質感的壓克力防塵蓋。
4. 緊湊且現代的設計
極簡美學：外型簡約優雅，適合現代家居風格。避震腳座：配備可調高度的避震腳座，能有效隔離環境震動，保證播放時的穩定性。
The Clearaudio Compass is a belt-drive turntable designed to provide a high-end "plug-and-play" experience at a more accessible price point than the brand's flagship models. Handcrafted in Erlangen, Germany, it emphasizes precision engineering and ease of use.
Key Selling Points
- Ready-to-Play Convenience: The turntable comes fully assembled out of the box with the tonearm and cartridge pre-installed, making it ideal for beginners or those seeking a hassle-free setup.
- Precision German Engineering: Every critical component, including the bearing and tonearm, is handmade in Germany at Clearaudio's facility, ensuring high build quality and longevity.
- Advanced Bearing & Platter System:
Features a polished, tempered steel spindle in a sintered bronze bushing on a Teflon thrust pad for silent, smooth rotation.
Uses a 20mm thick acrylic platter paired with a CNC-machined aluminum sub-platter to improve rotational stability and reduce noise.
- High-Performance T1 Tonearm: Derived from the premium Satisfy model, this aluminum radial tonearm is optimized for tracking accuracy and includes high-quality "Direct Wire PLUS" internal cabling.
- Purpose-Built N1 MM Cartridge: Equipped with a specially developed moving-magnet cartridge that features an elliptical stylus and aluminum housing, designed to deliver detailed and spatial sound reproduction.
- Resonance-Optimized Design:
The chassis is made from medium-density wood fiber (MDF) with a solid steel bottom plate for added mass and vibration damping.
Height-adjustable decoupling feet ensure stability and isolate the system from external vibrations.
- Silent Belt-Drive Motor: A decoupled, resonance-damped 12V DC motor provides electronic speed switching (33 ⅓ and 45 RPM) with a measured speed accuracy of ±0.05%.
