Have you seen the Wilson Benesch GMT One System? (you’re looking at it)
“Wilson Benesch has long been synonymous with innovation, precision engineering, and the pursuit of absolute audio fidelity,” said Craig Milnes, Co-Founder and Design Director of Wilson Benesch.
I’ll say.
Steve Jain, Managing Director and Co-Founder of Fidelity Imports, commented, “We have built a curated portfolio of the world’s finest audio products, Wilson Benesch’s British made products are designed and manufactured by hand in Sheffield, England with advanced engineering, state-of-the-art material composition and a family owned passion for creating instruments that bring music to life. We are honoured to be the exclusive US importer of Wilson Benesch.”
In addition to analog, Wilson Benesch also offers two lines of loudspeakers—the Fibonacci and Precision lines—as well as the iGX Infrasonic Generator, a subwoofer that dips down to 12Hz.
That’s the Wilson Benesch Omnium loudspeaker from the Fibonacci line shown in 2 different finishes. Every pair of Wilson Benesch speakers are built to order and come in a standard finish as well as Premium Natural Wood Veneers, Premium P1 Carbon Fibre and Premium Paint Finishes.
You can see and hear the Wilson Benesch GMT One System Turntable, Omnium loudspeakers, and iGX Infrasonic Generator in one of Fidelity Imports rooms at Axpona 2025 which is just a short 5 weeks away (I’ll be getting up close and personal in Barn with a pair of Wilson Benesch loudspeakers in the not too distant future).
Here’s the press release from Wilson Benesch and Fidelity Imports:
Wilson Benesch Announces Exclusive U.S. Partnership with Fidelity Imports
Sheffield, UK & New Jersey, USA – March 5, 2025 – Wilson Benesch, the world-renowned British innovator in high-performance audio systems, is delighted to announce its official partnership with U.S. high-end audio importer Fidelity Imports. This strategic alliance marks a significant expansion for Wilson Benesch in the North American market, bringing its groundbreaking audio technologies to discerning U.S. audiophiles through Fidelity Imports’ distinguished distribution network.
The partnership will be unveiled to the public for the first time at AXPONA 2025, North America’s largest high-end audio showcase. The Fidelity Imports team will curate a world-class demonstration system featuring the Wilson Benesch Omnium Loudspeaker and the IGx Infrasonic Generator, delivering an unparalleled sonic experience. In addition, Fidelity Imports will collaborate with Wilson Benesch to present the GMT® One System Turntable to the U.S. market for the very first time. The GMT® One System Turntable has recently received critical acclaim, having been awarded ‘Turntable of the Year’ by The Absolute Sound. Michael Fremer, a renowned authority in the audiophile community, stated, “I must conclude that the system, the combination of the Tessellate cartridge and the turntable produced the best sound I’ve heard from vinyl records of every musical genre.”
“Wilson Benesch has long been synonymous with innovation, precision engineering, and the pursuit of absolute audio fidelity,” said Craig Milnes, Co-Founder and Design Director of Wilson Benesch. “With Fidelity Imports’ expertise and deep passion for high-end audio, we are confident that this partnership will provide U.S. listeners with an extraordinary opportunity to experience our cutting-edge designs as they were intended, in some of the finest dealers across the USA.”
Fidelity Imports, is a relative new comer to the market, but has already curated a portfolio of highly respected audio brands and established itself as a leading importer in the North American market. Steve Jain, Managing Director and Co-Founder of Fidelity Imports, commented, “We have built a curated portfolio of the world’s finest audio products, Wilson Benesch’s British made products are designed and manufactured by hand in Sheffield, England with advanced engineering, state-of-the-art material composition and a family owned passion for creating instruments that bring music to life. We are honoured to be the exclusive US importer of Wilson Benesch.”
Wilson Benesch’s commitment to materials science, advanced engineering, and uncompromising sound reproduction has positioned the brand as a leader in high-end audio. The Fibonacci Series reference loudspeaker line represents the pinnacle of the company’s decades-long pursuit of sonic perfection that traces back to the very first carbon fibre composite enclosure ever introduced to the high end audio market when Wilson Benesch launched the A.C.T. One in 1994. Wilson Benesch was founded on the launch of a turntable and the world’s first parabolic single-piece carbon fibre tonearm and following an almost decade long hiatus, the GMT® One System Turntable marks the companies return to the analogue market with that is widely now reported as a revolution in vinyl playback, redefining analogue performance through the application of next-generation engineering and manufacturing techniques. Every element of the GMT® One System—from the revolutionary OMEGA Direct Drive System to the GRAVITON Armwand, TESSELLATE Ti Cartridge, remote- controlled Piezo VTA system, and the bespoke R1 Rack—has been meticulously designed, developed, and manufactured entirely in the Wilson Benesch factory. This holistic approach to engineering ensures an unprecedented level of synergy and performance in analogue playback.
AXPONA 2025 attendees will have the exclusive opportunity to witness and experience Wilson Benesch’s extraordinary craftsmanship firsthand, setting the stage for a new era of high-fidelity listening experiences in the U.S. market.
