Whether you're diving into vinyl for the first time or rediscovering a treasured collection, this direct drive turntable offers exceptional pitch stability, reduced distortion, and high-fidelity sound reproduction.
Precision Engineering for Superior Sound
The direct drive motor ensures consistent speed accuracy, while the cast aluminum platter and low-resonance chassis provide the stability needed for clear, immersive audio. The J-shaped tonearm, inspired by Audio Technica’s classic designs, features dynamic anti-skate control, ensuring the stylus tracks grooves with precision—reducing distortion and enhancing sound detail.
