Product Overview

Product Overview

Turntable:

A quiet running AC motor with a two-step pulley drives the hub and platter via a flat-ground belt.

The medium density fiber plinth stands on four fet which act as shock absorbers.

The motor is decoupled from the plinth to reduce vibration transmission.

The platter is a sandwich construction utilizing the hub, a sheet-steel platter weighing 1.3kg and a felt mat.

The platter's low-tolerance chrome-plated stainless steel axle runs on a polished ball bearing in a brass bearing housing.

External power supply avoids potential electro-mechanical interference.

Tonearm Pro-Ject 8.6:

The turntable is supplied with Ortofon OM5E MM-cartridge fitted.

Uniform material: the tonearm tube and bearing housing are constructed from aluminum.

The headshell and undamped armtube are fashioned from a single piece.

The inverted horizontal bearings consist of two hardened stainless steel points bearing in sapphire cushes.

Flexible counterweight shaft avoids vibration at undesirable frequencies.

The counterweight supplied is suitable for cartridges weighing between 3 and 5.5 grams.

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

The internal wiring consists of high-grade flexible copper from the headshell right through to the connection cable.

The connection cable has gold-plated plugs and appropriate capacitance and inductance values.

Cartridge:

Output voltage 4mV.

Recommended load resistance 47kohms (MM-input).
