About This Item
- 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: Not included (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.)
- Audio Only Outputs: 1 x Phono
- Network Connector(s): No network connectors
- 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.)

- Upgradeability: This table is ready to be upgraded should you wish. It is one of the few tables on the market that is capable of becoming balanced from the cartridge to your preamp. Upgrade to a MC cartridge, a balanced cable, and a phono preamp cabable of accepting a balanced signal and you will hear things you never heard before. Optional, but always available to you.
- Outboard Motor: The motor itself is an "outboard" motor. That means it is physically not touching the plynth or platter essentially making its noise introduction zero. It has an incredibly accurate speed change on it, switching between 33s and 45rpm vinyl has never been easier.
- Platter: The platter is almost 23 pounds of machinced aluminum with TPE damping to make this one of the most rumble resistent platters making your vinyl sound exactly how it should.
