item description

Turntable
- Chassis and motor housing piano-lacquered dark grey
- A quiet running AC motor with a two-step pulley drives the platter's outside edge via a belt.
- The medium density fibre plinth rests on three individually height-adjustable magnetic field feet.
- A supplied spirit level allows easy adjustment. Granulate filled plinth guarantees constant damping.
- The motor is mounted in a separate metal housing to eliminate vibration transmission.
- The resonance-optimised platter is a sandwich construction utilising an acrylic platter weighing 3,5Kg and a brass record puck.
- The inverted bearing uses a stainless-steel axle carrying a ceramic ball on which the ceramic bearing plate runs.
- Central metal block optimises centre of gravity and damps main bearing.
- Connection to the phono input of the amplifier can be made with connecting cables of your taste through the gold plated phono sockets and earth screw. A standard cable is provided.
- External power supply avoids potential electro-mechanical interference.

Tonearm Pro-Ject 9cc Evolution
- The headshell and armtube are fashioned from a single piece of carbon-fibre.
- Conical armtube avoids standing wave reflections.
- Inverted tonearm bearing comprises four hardened stainless tips in ABEC7 spec ballraces.
- Rings provide very solid arm bearing housings. The massive outside ring is open to avoid resonances.
- Sorbothane®-damped counterweight effectively counteracts unwanted resonances.
- The counterweights supplied are suitable for cartridges weighing between 5 - 7,5g, 7 - 10g, 9 - 11g or 10 - 14g
- Counterweight shaft lowered to record level reduces cantilever forces and dynamic wow when playing warped records.
- Solid armbase permits accurate height adjustment of armtube and VTA (vertical tracing angle).
- Single-screw fixing of armtube allows rotation for easy adjustment of needle azimuth despite fixed headshell.
- Silicone-damped armlift can be adjusted to suit working height of the arm.
- The internal wiring consists of flexible high-purity copper from the headshell right through to the gold-plated phono sockets.
