Plinth
The MDF plinth features a satin black finish or real walnut wood veneer, an optimized, switchable auto-stop function, and height-adjustable feet with resonance absorbers.
Aluminum Platter
The precision die-cast platter weighs 1.9 kg and features full-surface rubber coating on the underside. A heavy Dual mat provides resonance damping.
Aluminum-Carbon Sandwich Tube Tonearm
The tonearm features precise height adjustment via a rotary mechanism and finely adjustable tracking force via a spiral spring. It also includes automatic tonearm lift and a precision-machined headshell with azimuth clamp.
Direct-Drive
The direct-drive system features quartz-stabilized speed control for 33 / 45 / 78 rpm and wow and flutter values of 0.05% DIN. Ironless air-core coils prevent vibration, while double shielding protects against magnetic interference fields.
