The
quest for excellence
Rui Borges Turntables is a Portuguese brand of turntables which are personally
designed and built from scratch by Rui Borges. Rui built his first turntable
in 1990 - RSB Reference - and displayed it at the Portuguese Audioshow
in 1995. It was highly praised by the audiophile milieu. In 1996 a review
of this turntable was published in the Portuguese magazine "Audio". Its
author was Jorge Gonçalves, the magazine's editor-in-chief. On the following
year, it was distinguished by this magazine as the "Analogue product of
the year". Encouraged and motivated by it, Rui Borges presented in 2000
another project - Ultimo - which was also very successful. The judicious
choice of materials used in each key-point, the assembly methods, the
absence of vibration, the rotational stability, is the result of uncountable
hours of research and experimentation. Recognised for the quality and
high performance of his turntables, Rui's quest for precision and his
outstanding and unique attention to the smallest details in each of his
projects is the secret behind the excellent sound quality of these turntables.
