The PE 4040 MKII is a reference-class subchassis turntable featuring the highly regarded Thorens TP 92 tonearm. As a modern tribute to the iconic PE 2020 model from the late 1960s, the MKII version sets a new standard in belt-driven design. In our German workshop, the visually divided chassis can be custom-configured in various material, color, and lacquer combinations. This makes each PE 4040 MKII not only a performance benchmark, but also a unique, tailor-made piece.

The spring-suspended subchassis ensures maximum decoupling from external vibrations, enabling uncompromised sonic purity.

“Very high-quality and technically refined subchassis turntable that impresses with musicality, spatial accuracy, and tight bass. Easy to use, yet expandable. Outstanding.”
