SANSUI FR-4060

Commentary

An automatic record player equipped with an electronic automatic mechanism.

It inherits the basic performance and functions of conventional manual players and is automated.
The effect of arm side pressure, which is a problem in auto player, is solved by a unique auto mechanism using magnet, reed switch and exclusive 16-pole timing motor. All auto operations can be performed at constant speed.

If you pull the cue lever at Start/Cut, the instrument automatically starts playing and returns to the arm armrest at the end of playing. You can also cut the instrument in the middle with one touch operation of the lever. If you want to enjoy playing repeatedly, you can play continuously by pulling the lever down to REPEAT.

Since the auto mechanism has no mechanical contact during recording performance, manual setting is not necessary even during auto operation. Manual operation can be performed freely by simply operating the arm by hand.

The turntable shaft of the drive section is finished with centerless polishing, and high-performance special grease is used to reduce friction to 0.
In addition, Teflon material is used for the bearing, and it is combined with a 30 cm aluminum die-cast 1.7 kg turntable, double-sided polishing polyurethane belt, and 4-pole synchronous motor to minimize wow and flutter.

A static balance S-shaped pipe arm is used for the tone arm. It supports not only 2-channel but also 4-channel records. In addition, a vibration-resistant rubber damper is used for the weight shaft to prevent resonance.
In addition, for canceling the inside force, the repulsion of the pin-like precision spring is applied, and the optimum canceling amount can be selected from 0 just by adjusting the memory of the knob according to the needle pressure.

Equipped with an arm lifter.

The cartridge is equipped with SV-27, a MM type cartridge.
By making the mass of the vibration system extremely small, and by making the structure of the damper part holding mechanism of the cantilever unique even though it is MM type, the follow-up and transient characteristics against horizontal and vertical displacement are improved, and the phase difference between right and left channels is minimized in order to improve the phase difference which is a problem in the case of 4-channel record.

A special synthetic rubber insulator is used to prevent howling.

Uses a low-capacity output cord that can be connected to the rear socket to suppress high-frequency attenuation.

Gold plating is used for the arm and shell connection terminals.

Equipped with a lateral balancer, detachable free-stop dust cover, shell stand, and sub-weight.

Equipped with muting circuit, you can enjoy smooth performance without noise or shock.

Equipped with a remote control socket, by using a separately sold remote controller, automatic operation is possible from 3m away place.
