The Helix One
The Helix One Mk2 incorporates all of the Döhmann technologies into a single chassis with an independent
power supply located in a separate PowerBase. It has the facility for two tonearms and is engineered to
deliver unparalleled performance in analogue playback.
It is the result of many years of research, development, collaboration and listening by internationally
acclaimed analogue designer Mark Döhmann.
Mark identified the specific challenges of designing a new benchmark turntable and then explored what
technologies exist in the world that address these challenges. After investigating solutions used in aerospace,
spectrometry, medical imaging and electron microscopy, Mark incorporated these technologies into a new
turntable design.
Due to its fully integrated MinusK vibration isolation system utilizing NSM and mechanical crossover
technology, its ability to deal with vibration and resonance is unsurpassed and allows the music to be enjoyed
with an outstanding level of realism.
The Helix One has a new custom designed Swiss-manufactured motor which incorporates the very latest
technology around constant torque performance and quietness of operation. It is designed to operate
flawlessly in non-ideal environments such as older houses with wooden floors, upper floors, attics where
external vibrations are carried through buildings – even those made from concrete, steel, and brick. Due to its
revolutionary vibration isolation system, it is also not dependent on a high-quality audiophile stand.
The design has made it possible to incorporate a level of engineering previously not possible at this price point
and as a result, the Helix One is considered to be outstanding value.
As a result of this attention to detail, the Helix One’s sound is immediately recognised for its purity and
realism. It has become the turntable of choice of many discerning audiophiles around the world and has been
critically acclaimed to be in the top echelon of players available at any price.
