About This Item

The RPM 9 turntable is a resonance-optimized audiophile grade turntable with a 9cc EVO tonearm delivering a world class vinyl playback. The high-mass chassis is made from resonance-absorbing MDF and additionally hard-resin-coated steel pellets at central gravity points to draw any resonance away creating no potential resonance or noise reaching the tonearm or cartridge.
  • Key Specs
    • Drive Type: Belt drive
    • Operation Type: Manual (Automatic turntables move the tonearm into position to begin playing a record and remove it when the record is finished, typically with a single push of a button. Semi-automatic turntables require user interaction to place the tonearm inititally, but will automatically remove it after playback. Manual turntables require the user to place and remove the tonearm as needed.)
    • Integrated Preamp: false (An audio component that amplifies the turntable's audio signal to a level compatible for connection to a sound system.)
    • Cartridge Type Included: MM (Moving Magnet) (Phono cartridges translate the grooves in a record into electrical signals to produce sound. There are two main types: moving magnet (MM) and moving coil (MC). Generally, MM cartridges have a robust design and high output levels. MC cartridges have an inverse design of MM that is lightweight and more precise, but usually require a preamp to boost their lower output signals.)
    • App Compatible: false (The product can be connected to a program or software application on a mobile device, which then receives collected data from the product.)

    • Turntable Type: Component (All-in-one turntables have built-in speakers and an integrated preamp for optimal listening pwithout need for other device connections. Component turntables consist of the main turntable (may require separate purchase of cartridge) and require external connections before use. DJ turntables are digital devices with special features and sound effects intended for professional use.)
    • Wow and Flutter: 0.006 percent (Measures "frequency wobble" or the level of distortion caused by speed fluctuations typically measured at kHz. The lower the percentage, the better the player's ability to sustain proper pitch and avoid distortion.)
    • Speed Variation: 33/45 (The variance in platter revolutions per minute (RPM), typically asserted as +/- RPM. The smaller the variation in speed, the cleaner the sound and the fewer noticeable differences in pitch.)
    • Anti-Skate Mechanism: true (Keeps the tonearm in place with an opposing force, to prevent it from "skating" toward the center of the record and skipping or scratching during playback.)

The RPM 9 turntable is a resonance-optimized audiophile grade turntable with a 9cc EVO tonearm delivering a world class vinyl playback. The high-mass chassis is made from resonance-absorbing MDF and additionally hard-resin-coated steel pellets at central gravity points to draw any resonance away creating no potential resonance or noise reaching the tonearm or cartridge.

  • Chassis: The high-mass CNC-machined chassis is made from resonance-absorbing MDF and filled with hard-resin-coated steel pellets to form an ultra-massive base. A complex heat treatment and carbon fiber surface coating ensure minimal resonance levels. The mass-loaded chassis is effectively decoupled from its surface with opposing-magnetic feet.
  • Platter: The RPM9 uses a massive 15.9 pound aluminum platter that is acoustically inert to deliver perfect resonance free playback. This sits on a ceramic ball/plate ball bearing resulting in next to zero rumble.
  • Outboard AC Motor: This ultra speed consistent AC motor is driven with a DC power supply to be perfectly smooth and consistent for perfect vinyl playback. As an outboard motor it is isolated to further reduce any potential vibrations and noise added by the motor. Coupled with a large heavy aluminum base additonal reduces any vibration transmissions.
  • Tonearm: The tonearm is an EVO CC Carbon Fiber , which is fancy way of saying made out of a solid piece of carbon fiber. It is engineered to disippate any standing wave reflections. Carbon Fiber is a fantastic material that is both light, and very strong.
  • Upgradability: The RPM 9 turntable ships without a cartridge. This is by design as it allows you to pick and choose the matching sound you want depending on which cartridge you select. We have an perfect option and suggest the Sumiko Songbird Phono cartridge as a fantastic audiophile grade cartridge. Many other upgrades can take place as well to grow with your table if you want, let it be a new cartridge, tonearm, speedbox, there are many easy ways to even improve on something amazing.
