Bar Neiro

The room

At Bar Neiro in Berlin-Mitte, vinyl LPs play from beginning to end in a seated room with cocktails. Created by Analogue Foundation, the limited-capacity space gives the album format room to unfold, making it a destination for listeners who enjoy following a record beyond its best-known track.

Bar Neiro builds its analogue chain around Altec A5 components in Western Electric 825 cabinets: 515B woofers, 1505B horns and 288C compression drivers, supplemented by Fostex T90A supertweeters. Shindo Cortese 300B amplification uses Western Electric 300B valves, with a Shindo Monbrison preamplifier.

The source is a Garrard 301 with an A23 Hommage mat and 12-inch Schick arm. Audio-Technica ART1000 and VM750SH cartridges provide alternative pickup options, with Auditorium 23 cabling. High-efficiency horn loading and low-power valve amplification are central to the design, within an acoustically considered room.
