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.)
Audio Only Outputs: 1 x Phono
Network Connector(s): No network connectors, No network connectors, No network connectors, No network connectors, 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.)

Integrated Preamp: false (An audio component that amplifies the turntable's audio signal to a level compatible for connection to a sound system.)
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.)
Playable Record Speeds: 33 1/3, 45
Turntable Motor Type: AC
Wow and Flutter: 0.15 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: 0.25 (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.)
Cartridge & Tonearm
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.)
Cartridge Mount Type: Standard (1/2 inch) mount (The method that attaches the cartridge to the turntable.)
Stylus Shape: Diamond (A narrower contact radius produces better sound and reduces wear.)
Tonearm Balance Type: Dynamic (Static balanced arms use a counterweight at its pivot point to provide a stable fulcrum and can be adjusted to achieve the desired tracking force. Dynamic balanced arms use a counterweight and then a spring is used to apply the desired tracking force. When properly balanced, the stylus receives optimal vertical pressure and can read the most amount of detail within the grooves of the record.)
Effective Tonearm Length: 8.6 millimeters
Tonearm Overhang Length: 8.6 millimeters

Audio Only Outputs: 1 x Phono

X1 B - ready for the next step: Turntables look back on a long history. As technology continues to progress, many things have changed, not only from the technical possibilities, also from the environment.
Why True Balanced?: Balanced audio connections are usually known from the professional sector like recording studios or live concerts. It is very important to have a stable & interference free connection, as these signals, especially microphone signals, will be highly amplified
High end tonearm & cartridge: The X1 B uses a 8,6“ carbon/aluminium tonearm. The carbon layer gives the tonearm a high degree of rigidity, while the inner aluminium tube takes over the damping of the tonearm. The ultra-low friction 4 pin point tonearm bearing guarantees a precise, stable and accurate tracking. The one-piece design avoids vibrations caused by detachable headshells.
Mini XLR & RCA output: The X1 B comes with our high-quality Connect it E cable. It is a semi-balanced, low-capacitance cable, with superior shielding.
