KARUNA
Integration of design and sound
KARUNA – DESIGN, CARE AND PERFECTION
Like all our turntables Karuna is built with care and a continuous strive for perfection in design and sound.
Karuna means compassion, which is one of the pillars in both the Eastern and Western spiritual traditions. According to Yoga Sutras compassion should be projected in all our actions, both towards our self and out to the whole world.
We on our hand try our best to integrate compassion into every turntable made.
TIMELESS DESIGN
OUR GOAL IS TO BUILD AND DESIGN TURNTABLES THAT WILL STAY IN YOU HOMES FOR MANY YEARS TO COME
The Cocobolo Experience
The Karuna Turntable is made from Cocobolo veneer. We know Saul Goodman wanted his Cocobolo table. We can’t give you that but we can offer a turntable made from Palissandro Cocobolo or Nicaraguan Cocobolo. It has an orange or reddish-brown colour with darker irregular traces and black veining.
Architecture of Sound
Cocobolo is a hardwood known for its density and hardness and even a large block of the cut wood will produce a clear musical tone if struck. Because of its warm and rich palette cocobolo is used to make musical instruments and therefore it is a perfect fit for our turntables.
