Luphonic Model R3 Turntable
The Luphonic R3 is a precision-engineered subchassis turntable designed for serious analog enthusiasts. With a rotatable tonearm base, advanced motor control, and a resonance-optimized solid surface chassis, it offers a flexible and acoustically refined foundation for a wide range of tonearms and cartridges.
Luphonic R3 Turntable
The Luphonic R3 is a high-mass subchassis turntable designed to deliver exceptional sonic performance and accommodate tonearms ranging from 9 to 12 inches. At the heart of its flexibility is a precision-engineered, rotatable tonearm base that allows for easy adjustment of mounting distances between 200 mm and 300 mm—no technician required. Setup is quick and accurate with the included alignment template.
Inspired by the acclaimed acoustic performance of the H1 and H2, the R3 features a multi-layer solid surface construction that offers superb resonance control. The inner layers are specifically designed to dampen both external vibrations and internal energy transmission for a purer listening experience.
Precision Drive System
The R3 is powered by a finely tuned synchronous motor paired with advanced motor control electronics. Each unit is individually calibrated for optimal amplitude and phase precision, ensuring ultra-quiet, consistent rotation. Speed selection is managed via an intuitive puck controller with a digital display, offering hands-free operation and fine-tuning via potentiometer.
Tonearm Compatibility
The R3 ships with your choice of the K2-9 (9.5″) or K2-12 (12″) gimbal-mounted tonearm, both featuring low-resonance carbon arm tubes and extensive adjustment options. Alternatively, the R3 supports a wide range of third-party tonearms with compatible mounts, making it a versatile platform for serious analog enthusiasts.

Press Reviews
“…it offers something different to many of its peers, something which…is musically meaningful and significant. The care that Luphonic has taken in its choice of materials, the layering and separation of the basic functions, and the attention to details in things like tailoring the power supply to each motor, have brought about a turntable which is different enough, and better enough, to warrant serious attention.”
