Australian Audio Design & Manufacture

Sonic Art has been servicing Melbourne Audiophiles for over 30 years, while our business was originally design and manufacture of hi-end products we also spent a lot of time in loungerooms around Melbourne! Our business is a little different to your usual HiFi store, we operate largely online supplying our own products worldwide and importing/stocking a select range of products to compliment what we do for our local customers. And we still spend time in lounge rooms around the East and South East of Melbourne! We set up turntables, install cabling, upgrade electronics, from a simple cartridge install and alignment to a more serious component upgrade of your CD player, amplifier, speakers or dac! We stock spares for all the old CEC Belt drive transports, and can source spares for many other products.

ORIGIN LIVE

Sonic Art is the original importer of Origin Live into Australia, we started with OL in the late 90’s importing their Rega modifications and selling their accessories and modified Rega tonearms. We have vast experience with OL tonearms and turntables, we can rebuild any early tonearm and can get most parts for the older arms. Anything not available we can usually machine up replacement parts for! We upgrade the early arms with current high spec wiring and can service anything Origin Live.

CEC JAPAN

Sonic Art has been working on CEC Belt drive transports and CD players since the late 90’s. We imported many transports into Australia, TL5100’s, TL51 series, DX71, as well as the range of AMP series products, AMP3300, AMP5300 etc. We can work on many CEC products, have common spare parts in stock and can modify new current series belt drive transports. We have a great mod package for the current TL5 which raises its performance to the next bar.

TONEARM REWIRES!

Sonic Art has been rewiring and upgrading tonearms for decades, we are specialists in REGA tonearms and can work on most tonearm brands and models. We use CARDAS litz or Superflex Litz tonearm wire inside all the arms we work on, the Cardas & SuperFlex wire is a fantastic sounding product, detailed and natural, we use it in all our own arms too! Our external cable the ‘VINYL LINK’ is a big step up in sound from the cable found on most tonearms and features our ‘time aligned’ design. We also custom design parts for repairing and upgrading arms, one common part we make is counterweights, we have machine shop facilities so if you need anything from a basic rewire to custom arm work please send a message through our contact page

SONIC ART REGA STRUCTURAL MOD KIT IS BACK!

We are back producing our turntable mods and upgrades, with the first of the new structural kits now available! Quality materials and attention to detail along with proven performance make this kit a must have for your REGA based Tonearm. Absolute must for any RB250/202/220 series arm, a solid upgrade for any RB300/303/330 and up arm.
