Commentary
A full auto player that uses frontal pivot arm.
We have developed a frontal pivot arm with a separate horizontal and vertical pivot bearing in order to pursue a short size and tracking performance that is not inferior to that of the normal type, and we are improving the reproducibility on the disk.
The material is a straight aluminum pipe arm with high rigidity and light mass.
It uses a microcomputer control system and can control auto lead-in, auto cut, Oatley turn, auto repeat, and all operations without a turner by operating the operation key.
Equipped with computer search function, arm lift-up, cue down and search operation can be controlled by operation of the front key.
The drive system is equipped with a direct drive motor whose servo circuit controls the rotational speed to be stable.
The cabinet adopts a 2-layer vibration control structure, and vibration is reduced by combining it with a spring / rubber compound insulator.
It is equipped with a dedicated output terminal that enables synchronized recording in conjunction with the TA-44X cassette deck or CX 110 deck receiver.
There was also a black type PL-220B.
