FEATURES
1. High Rotational Performance
A high degree of rotational performance has been
achieved through the use of a high-performance, high-
torque direct drive motor, speed detection using a high-
density optical pulse encoder, and a PLL quartz control
system, etc.
2. Hybrid (2-Layer) Platter Offers Excellent Vibration
Resistance
The bottom surface of the large-sized, thick aluminum
die cast platter is entirely covered with a silicon rubber
sheet which increases the internal vibrational losses
and prevents platter ringing.
3. Rubber Mat Developed with Holographic Analysis Tech-
nology
Close adhesion of the record with the surface of the
turntable mat is necessary in attaining a stable sound.
The surface of the turntable mat has a minute taper from
the outside portion to the inside portion which increases
the adhesive qualities of the record.
4. Finely Finished Wooden Cabinet
The large-sized wooden cabinet incorporates the latest
technology in both the materials and the finish. A large-
sized insulator is used that comprises a combination of
damping rubber and conical springs to strike a balance
between howling characteristics and elegance.
