The new Air Force IV is a new benchmark in analog sound.

A new benchmark in analog sound. Driven by TechDAS’ innovative ‘air’ technologies, this turntable realizes our vision of ultimate analog reproduction

The TechDAS Air Force turntables feature unique pneumatic technologies including air bearing that absolutely isolates the rotating platter and the record from any vibration. Additionally, our vacuum LP hold-down system clamps an LP onto the platter. With these “air” technologies, the Air Force turntables achieve an unparalleled sound quality, compared to conventional analog turntables.
