The Wrensilva Loft: Mid-Century Style, This Century Technology
This hi-fi record console system ties together mid-century style with this century's wireless streaming technology.
Memories of my parents late 60s/early 70s mid-century stereo console came flooding back upon laying eyes on the Wrensilva Loft record console system. Combining the aesthetics of “then” with the technology of “now”, the Loft plays the part of tasteful throwback, one embellished by a list of wireless connectivity features that invites listeners to switch between the pleasures of analog to the convenience of digital streaming at the turn of a switch (or app).
Closed up, the Loft’s solid North American Walnut hardwood with gloss white acrylic detailing looks like a handsome side table.
The steel shelf below offers storage for up to 120 records; thoughtfully a capture tray is integrated for record brush, mobile device, and other small accessories. Belying its compact size (28″W x 33″H x 18″D), the Loft is rated for 300 watts per channel delivered by the company’s own Wrensilva Class D output amp (featuring IcePower by Bang & Olufsen). The fully decoupled belt driven turntable keeps vibration at bay between motor and OA2 precision Gimbal tonearm tipped with an Ortofon 2m Red MM Cartridge, a welcome detail for the discerning aesthete audiophile.
And while vinyl may have entrenched itself as a popular audio medium again, San Diego-based Wrensilva astutely recognizes modern day listeners ...
