About This Item

This semi-automatic direct-drive turntable elevates vinyl listening with a refined end-of-side tonearm lift that raises the arm and stops the motor automatically. A J-shaped aluminum tonearm with adjustable VTA and subcounterweight supports a wide range of cartridges, while the included elliptical stylus delivers clear channel separation and low distortion. The speed-sensor system and low-torque DC servo motor maintain precise rotation across 33-1/3, 45, and 78 RPM playback. A rubber-damped, die-cast aluminum platter with mat, rigid MDF plinth, internal power supply, and height-adjustable feet work together to minimize resonance, noise, and vibration for confident, detailed performance.

Q: Does it have a pre amp
