Sorane SME Sliding Base

Sorane tonearms and parts have been made and assembled exclusively by hand since Katsuaki Ishiyama founded the company in 1974. Even though basic parts are made on CNC milling machines, assembly remains handwork: parts are hand-fitted and adjusted so that the mechanical contact between the surfaces is ideal.

Full description

Since founding the company in 1974, Katsuaki Ishiyama-san has built up and accumulated design and development know-how for various tonearms (and other analogue equipment), all of which are manufactured and assembled exclusively by hand. In his conviction, fine-tuning of various analogue gear is only possible through the precise and sensitive hands of craftsmen.

Even though they apply modern CNC milling technology in their own factory to produce basic parts, their expertise still relies on the work of their craftsmen, especially during assembly, so that many parts achieve idealised mechanical surface contact with one another through hand tuning and hand adjustment.

Very satisfied with the service of this shop. I recently ordered a Rega phono amplifier and a matching cable, and they were shipped neatly packed.

The owner closed the shop to help

I bought a second-hand soundbar from Audiofrenzy. The service is quick and friendly. I needed help getting the device into my car and the owner helped me straight away — he closed the shop to do so. Old-fashioned service and respect for the customer.
