An armless player system with a direct drive turntable SP-10 mounted on a large wood base.

The SP-10 used in the turntable section is a direct-drive type turntable developed by Technics for the first time in the world. Since the motor itself rotates at the same speed as the record, there is no reduction mechanism such as belt or idler. This eliminates mechanical vibration caused by the reduction mechanism.

Turntable has weight of 2.8 kg and inertial mass of 330 kg ・ cm2Each item is strictly adjusted for dynamic balance.

Since the rotational speed is changed electronically by operating the knob, there is no rotational unevenness caused by the switching mechanism.
In addition, the rotational speed can be finely adjusted by each of 33 1/3 and 45 revolutions.

Up to 2 tone arms can be installed.
In addition, the arm can be replaced together with the arm mounting plate, and the mounting plate can be easily removed simply by loosening the four knobs.

The wood base employs a unique floating system that combines viscoelastic materials and springs to cut vibrations across the entire audible frequency range and prevent acoustic feedback due to external vibrations.
In addition, horizontal adjustment is possible by turning the rubber foot on the back side of the wood base.

On the left side of the wood base, there is an accessory box that can store cartridges and cleaners.

Dust cover is included.
