Mikrofon Funk

The Funk Firm is a British analogue-audio brand founded in 1990 by Arthur Khoubesserian, a designer best known for his earlier work with Pink Triangle. Based in the UK, it emerged from the turntable tradition but has built its identity around engineering-led vinyl replay rather than broader hi-fi electronics.

The company is primarily known for turntables, tonearms, cartridges, and a range of upgrade accessories for record decks. Its catalogue also includes isolation devices, mats, platters, and other accessories aimed at improving vinyl performance, reflecting a strong focus on mechanical design and resonance control. It is not a maker of amplifiers, speakers, DACs, or headphones.

In the market, The Funk Firm sits firmly in the specialist, niche-boutique end of hi-fi. It has a reputation among vinyl enthusiasts for inventive, sometimes unconventional engineering and for offering serious performance without chasing mass-market scale. That makes it a respected name for knowledgeable analogue buyers, especially those looking for turntable design with a distinctive technical viewpoint.
