Explore EMT: The Brand Behind Precision Audio Reproduction

We at EMT are enthusiastic about music reproduction and we feel sure that analogue technology harmonizes best with the nature of music.

All pickups are built piece by piece in fine craftsmanship by our well educated team of watchmakers and assembling employees. Even if we are familiar with most modern designing and manufacturing equipment, personal experience in listening and manual skills are the real reason making our cartridges so precious and musical.

MANUFACTURY

EMT Tontechnik is a division of HiFiction AG, located in Turbenthal, Switzerland. We produce the EMT cartridges and the famous Thales tonearms and turntables. We are settled in a former spinning mill which was built in 1833 and has been carefully refurbished. Turbenthal is close to Zurich Airport and Winterthur.

ENGINEERING

We use modern engineering tools for traditional products.
