A contemporary take on a timeless classic Since the first Encel store opened in Richmond in 1958, the turntable has been a cornerstone of home audio—progressing from the rudimentary mechanics of early gramophones to the refined analogue precision of today. In a world now shaped by digital sound, the Encel S revives the rich warmth, immersive depth, and hands-on experience that only vinyl can offer.
Crafted for true vinyl enthusiasts The Encel S is made for those who cherish the magic of music on vinyl. Its 8.6" S-shaped aluminium tonearm offers precise tracking and features a detachable headshell, making cartridge changes and upgrades effortless. Whether you're fine-tuning your setup or exploring new sonic textures, a quick twist of the collar is all it takes. Out of the box, it's ready to play—fitted with a factory-aligned Ortofon 2M Red moving magnet cartridge.
Switching between 33 and 45 RPM is seamless thanks to an electronic rocker switch, allowing you to move easily between albums and EPs. A solid steel platter, TPE motor suspension, magnetic anti-skating, and a precision belt drive work together to deliver smooth, stable playback every time.
Handcrafted with care and built to last Each Encel S is meticulously assembled by hand, using durable, high-quality materials designed for a lifetime of listening. It features a built-in switchable phono preamp, allowing for seamless integration into any audio setup—whether you prefer to use the onboard preamp or connect your own.
To complete the experience, the Encel S comes with a premium phono cable featuring gold-plated RCA connectors, along with a protective dust cover—essentials that make it as practical for everyday use as it is satisfying for serious audiophiles.
About Encel In 1958, inspired by a magazine article on the emerging world of stereo sound, Alex Encel hand-built his first amplifier and speakers—culminating in Australia’s first demonstration of two-channel audio. What began as a passionate hobby quickly evolved into a thriving business, expanding throughout the 1970s and ’80s to become a major force in both retail and wholesale audio.
Today, Alex’s vision lives on through a growing lineup of hi-fi products designed for contemporary listeners. Still family-owned and based in Melbourne, Encel remains committed to sustainability, thoughtful design, and exceptional sound—often collaborating with local Australian artists to bring a unique, creative edge to its brand.
