Features
Introduction
Coreless direct drive motor for high torque
and reliability
The newly developed coreless direct drive motor
can reduce minute vibration during rotation while
maintaining high torque.
The high-precision motor control technology
switches the drive mode depending on the
operational status of the motor and thus enables
high torque and stability.
The digital control method improves tracking and
accuracy, allowing for accurate and stable pitch
control.
High-precision bearings for highly sensitive
tone arm
The machine-cut, high-precision bearing used in
the tone arm bearing with gimbal suspension
allows for improved tracking, making skating less
likely even during the most intense performances.
Vibration-cutting highly rigid cabinet and
high-damping insulator
This unit is designed to not only deliver high-quality
sound and high feedback resistance, but also to
efficiently cut off external vibration in very loud
environments.
Functions to deliver a wide range of
performances
Allows for torque and brake speed adjustment.
Allows for reverse playback.
Allows the user to select from two LED lamp
colors depending on user’s preferences or the
environment.
