Commentary
A record player with belt drive system.
A belt drive system is adopted for the drive part.
DP-66B uses a polyurethane belt with excellent durability with sufficient consideration of hardness and elongation rate. Combined with a 4-pole synchronous motor, it enables reliable rotation.
S-shaped arm is used for the tone arm.
This arm is designed with a fo of 10 Hz. The actual measurement is 9.5 Hz with the attached cartridge. In addition, by suppressing partial resonance of structural parts, clear sound quality is obtained.
The cabinet is designed to be thin and is reinforced with rails.
We also have Shiraki type DP-66B-W.
