Over a Decade with Brinkmann Audio — The Legacy Continues at Sunny Components Inc.

At Sunny Components Inc., our relationship with Brinkmann Audio spans more than 10 years—a decade of trust, precision, and the unwavering pursuit of musical truth. This is not just a brand we carry. It’s a brand we believe in.

Founded by the legendary Helmut Brinkmann, Brinkmann Audio exemplifies German craftsmanship at its most refined. Every component is hand-assembled, then personally evaluated by Helmut and his expert team. If it doesn’t sing with that signature warmth, clarity, and bloom, it doesn’t wear the Brinkmann badge. Period.

Today, Helmut is joined by the brilliant Matthias Lück, the architect of the new generation of Brinkmann innovations. His work on the Nyquist Mk II DAC—a hybrid digital design with exquisite tube buffering—has redefined what digital music can feel like. Matthias also revolutionized analog playback with the RöNt Tube Power Supply, an elegant solution that brings analog life, silence, and natural flow to Brinkmann turntables.

🎵 Turntables That Inspire

🔹 Bardo – The direct-drive darling of our showroom.
We always keep two identical Brinkmann Bardo turntables in stock, each featuring the latest design of Brinkmann’s 12-inch tonearm. These are precision-matched and built for high-performance analog lovers.
Paired with the Harmonic Resolution Systems EXR isolation platform (19"x21"), this reference-grade combination is available for $16,500.00.
Elegant. Musical. Effortless.

🔹 Spyder – A modular belt-drive that accommodates up to 3 tonearms. Warm, wide, and musically organic.
🔹 Taurus – Compact direct-drive performance with two-tonearm capability and shocking resolution.
🔹 Balance – The summit. Refined, commanding, and utterly quiet.

🎛 Electronics That Disappear

  • Nyquist Mk II DAC – A true musical instrument, not just a converter.

  • Edison Mk II Phono Stage – Fully balanced with tube magic in just the right places.

  • Marconi Mk II Line Stage – Transparent control with musical finesse.

  • MONO Amplifiers – Solid-state power, tube-inspired warmth.

🌟 The Brinkmann Philosophy

Brinkmann integrates carefully selected tubes in low-stress operating conditions, ensuring extreme longevity—often exceeding 10,000 hours. These are stockpiled for future serviceability, ensuring consistency and reliability for decades.

All Brinkmann turntables are engineered to work with Harmonic Resolution Systems (HRS) platforms, tailored to each turntable's size and weight for maximum vibration control and musical purity.
