The Funk Firm
The Funk Firm
The brain and creator of The Funk Firm is physicist Arthur Khoubesserian, often referred to as ‘The Mad Scientist’. His knowledge spans and encompasses 40 years of experience starting with the Pink Triangle in the 80s.
Making the headlines, it is no exaggeration to say that Pink Triangle was responsible for turning the whole turntable scene upside down whilst at the same time heralding a new age for turntable development and helping to bring it to where it is today.

"By itself, the Houdini has to be one of the most interesting and important additions I've added to any turntable. It really is something else. It isn't an illusionist, it's a revealist and a revivalist. That is, you will find yourself revisiting your collection more than ever and enjoying it more than ever."

"What the Isolation Bubble package offers is a platform to give you confidence that your cartridge isn’t being held back. Isolating a turntable from external interference has long been known to have proven benefits, based on pure physics and common sense."
-Audiograde
"The LSD strikes such a good equilibrium of basic, balanced aesthetics and the ability to reveal a lot of music that it may actually be a destination turntable for many analog aficionado."
-Tone Publications
"In conclusion, the 20/20 showed that Khoubesserian’s impressively worked theories on isolation, vectoring and motor positioning really do enable a venerable design to transcend the limitations imposed by its geometry."

"For those of you that enjoy reading between the lines, the Gett! might be seen as an idiosyncratic product. You could leave a reasonably educated adult with no prior experience of vinyl setup in a room with many of its rivals and come back with the expectation of finding a functional record player."

"The Rage 1 turns the concept of the turntable on its head. It changes the dynamic. It re-writes the entire notion of what a turntable actually is and how it should be viewed. It is, my friends, revolutionary."
-The Audiophile Man
"It is as if The Funk Firm Houdini helps your cartridge escape the intrusion of the tonearm, then. Granted, some might have selected their current arm/cartridge combination precisely because of how they sound together. Yet for those considering upgrading either or both items, I suggest you try the Houdini first because it will improve the sound of your vinyl front end, and could save you money."
-Stereonet
"Houdini has resoundingly succeeded in terms of providing worthwhile sonic performance gains. Most noticeably, Houdini has brought an enhanced solidity to the low registers in terms of depth and impact while also boosting instrument separation through complex music."
-Soundstage Australia
"Offering a combination of precise control over more potentially chaotic frequencies, detail, air and space in the midrange, with impressive lower-end performance, this innovative and well-designed turntable delivers something that’s a little different from anything else out there in this price bracket. In conclusion, it’s one of the best turntables you can buy for under £1,000."
