WB was founded in 1989\. In 1990 it released the novel Wilson Benesch turntable system which established the company and its export markets. The Wilson Benesch Turntable and ACT One Tonearm is still a highly regarded design. It became obsolete as a result of the Papst motor being discontinued.The GMT or Greenwich Meantime System is a ground up development that incorporates a number of novel design solutions and very advanced technologies. Examples would include the highly successful R1 Rack, released 2014\. This is in fact an element of the GMT System. R1 retails for £20,000\. Another good example is the Graviton Tonearm system that incorporates the worlds first remote control, Piezo actuated VTA adjustment. The Titanium structure for this tonearm was developed in collaboration with the AMRC Sheffield in 2018 and has been productionised collaboratively with Renishaw PLC. The prototype of the Graviton was selected to be part of the Audio Design Museum in New York in 2019\.As Lead partner Wilson Benesch has created a consortium to push forward development of a novel new motor and motor control system to complete the GMT SystemIn December Covid19 forced Wilson Benesch to shelve all its R&D plans and refocus. As a result, it reshaped its entire working environment in order to safe guard its staff and maintain production through the ongoing crisis. With Government support it has expanded its operations by 3,000 sq ft to establish working cells that enable staff to operate independently. The early response to the threats of the pandemic allowed the staff within the company to operate in complete safely throughout the Lockdown.The Directors of both Wilson Benesch and CAAS Audio recognise that that the New Market of 2021/2 will present even greater challenges to SME's in this niche market. More than ever before, new products will need to demonstrate both radical and ideally disruptive credentials. The scope for mediocrity in the increasingly competitive global market will be limited. Innovation is more critical now than ever before.Thanks to the significant intervention by IUK Wilson Benesch has been able to bring together world class expertise to form a consortium. The consortium includes Sheffield Hallam University - Dr F. Al-Naemi, Dr J. Travis and Professor G. Cockerham. And a second innovative SME, CAAS Audio which is also based in South Yorkshire completes the consortium and will bring the world class expertise of Dr C. Broomfield and co director N. Broomfield.The consortium will enable a focussed collaborative effort to meet the significant technical challenges involved in creating a novel motor and dedicated control system. One of the key outcomes of this 9 month project will be the realisation of a fully operational working system that will demonstrate unprecedented levels of performance when compared to all prior art. Only such a solution will be sufficient to meet the exacting demands of the Greenwich Meantime System a system that Wilson Benesch believes will be a world beating design that music lovers across the world will embrace.

WB成立于1989年。1990年，它发布了新颖的Wilson Benesch转盘系统，建立了公司及其出口市场。Wilson Benesch转盘和ACT One Tonearm仍然是一个备受推崇的设计。它成为过时的结果，帕普斯特电机被停产。格林尼治或格林威治同时系统是一个地面上的发展，结合了一些新颖的设计解决方案和非常先进的技术。例子包括2014年发布的非常成功的R1 Rack。这实际上是GMT系统的一个要素。R1的零售价为2万英镑。另一个很好的例子是重力Tonearm系统，结合了世界上第一个远程控制，压电致动VTA调整。该音臂的钛结构是2018年与AMRC谢菲尔德合作开发的，并已与雷尼绍公司合作生产。Graviton的原型于2019年被选为纽约音频设计博物馆的一部分。作为首席合作伙伴，Wilson Benesch创建了一个联盟，以推动开发一种新颖的新型电机和电机控制系统，以完成GMT系统。12月，Covid迫使Wilson Benesch搁置所有研发计划并重新调整重点。因此，它重塑了整个工作环境，以保护其工作人员的安全，并在持续的危机中维持生产。在政府的支持下，它将业务扩大了3 000平方英尺，建立了工作小组，使工作人员能够独立运作。Wilson Benesch和CAAS Audio的董事都认识到，2021/2年的新市场将为这个利基市场的中小企业带来更大的挑战。新产品将比以往任何时候都更需要展示激进和理想的颠覆性证书。在竞争日益激烈的全球市场中，竞争的空间将是有限的。创新现在比以往任何时候都更加重要。由于IUK的重大干预，Wilson Benesch能够汇集世界一流的专业知识，形成一个联盟。该财团包括谢菲尔德哈勒姆大学-博士F。Al-Naemi、J. Travis博士和G.科克勒姆第二个创新的中小企业，CAAS音频，也是总部设在南约克郡完成了财团，并将带来世界一流的专业知识博士C。布鲁姆菲尔德和联合导演N。布鲁姆菲尔德。该联盟将使一个集中的合作努力，以满足重大的技术挑战，涉及创造一个新的电机和专用控制系统。这个为期9个月的项目的关键成果之一将是实现一个完全可操作的工作系统，与所有现有技术相比，该系统将展示前所未有的性能水平。只有这样的解决方案才足以满足格林威治同时系统的严格要求，Wilson Benesch认为该系统将成为世界各地音乐爱好者都会接受的世界级设计。
