Under this agreement, AXISS Audio will handle the full line of Phasemation products, including award-winning MC phono cartridges, tube amplifiers, preamplifiers, and phono stages.

Phasemation has emerged as the fastest-growing Japanese hi-fi brand in recent years, earning worldwide acclaim for its meticulous engineering and exceptional sound quality.
