The Verdier Philosophy: Frictionless Analog Reproduction
Since its introduction in 1979, the Verdier La Platine turntable has achieved legendary status among audiophiles by pioneering magnetic suspension in its bearing design. The French-designed philosophy is simple: eliminate mechanical friction, noise, and bearing chatter to reveal the deepest dynamics and texture embedded in the vinyl groove. The result is an almost impossibly quiet background, allowing the music to unfold with natural flow and profound musicality.

Verdier La Platine
The La Platine Turntable utilizes massive opposing magnets to float the platter, relieving the thrust bearing of the platter’s weight. This unique, high-mass system works in conjunction with a separate, acoustically decoupled outboard motor and thread drive (or belt) to achieve supreme speed stability. La Platine remains a timeless icon of function-driven design and uncompromising analog performance.
