Product information

 

 

Chassis available in matt black, glossy black, red and white 

 

A quiet running synchronous motor with a two-step pulley drives the platter's outside edge via a 
silicon belt. 

 

The drive motor is isolated on its own platform and completely decoupled from the plinth to eliminate 
vibration transmission. 

 

The resonance-optimised platter is made of medium density fibre. 

 

A inverted, chrome-plated stainless-steel axle runs on a polished metal ball in a sintered bronze bearing 
housing. 

 

Connection to the phono input of the amplifier can be made with connecting cables of your taste through 
the gold plated phono sockets and earth screw. 

 

External power supply avoids potential electro-mechanical interference. 

Tonearm  Pro-Ject 8.6s

 

 

The turntable is supplied with Ortofon OM 3E or Ortofon 2M Red MM-cartridge fitted 

 

The headshell and armtube are fashioned from a single piece of aluminium.  

 

The horizontal bearings consist of two hardened stainless steel points and ballraces. 

 

Eccentrically mounted counterweight reduces cantilever forces and dynamic wow when playing 
warped records. 

 

Solid armbase permits accurate height adjustment of armtube and VTA (vertical tracing angle). 

 

The counterweight supplied is suitable for cartridges weighing between 4 - 9g . An alternative counterweight 

for cartridges weighing between 8 - 15g  is available as an accessory part. 

 

Single-screw fixing of armtube allows rotation for easy adjustment of needle azimuth despite fixed headshell.
