Before start
Features
This unit is a professional turntable that provides functions, durability,
operability and sound quality suitable for a wide range of occasions,
from listening at home to disco or club scenes.
Direct drive system that achieves high
torque
The unit turns at a constant speed with 0.1 % or less wow and flutter,
4.5 kg·cm or more starting torque and start time of 0.3 seconds (at
33 1/3 rpm).
Design focused on high sound quality
For the RCA terminal, we adopted a gold plated component made
of the same cutting product as the TAD player, which is our flagship
brand. A stable connection directly transmits the PHONO signal.
External vibration effects are suppressed by the use of vibration sup-
pression material between the top and bottom cabinet.
Highly accurate, 3-level adjustable tempo
control
Tempo variable width can be adjusted to ±8 %, ±16 %, and ±50 %.
This provides highly flexible playback.
Pressing the [
RESET
] button instantly returns the tempo to ±0 %
constant rotation.
Detachable power cord and audio cables
Cables are not obstacles when the main unit is moved, thus prevent-
ing disconnection problems.
By replacing the audio cable, it is possible to customize the unit to
deliver the preferred sound.
