Commentary

LP jacket size full auto player with width and depth of 31.5 cm.

The tone arm uses a dynamic balance type linear tracking arm to achieve high-precision tracing performance regardless of the installation angle.
In addition, trace performance has been further enhanced by the use of a deflection angle detection function using an optical sensor near the needle tip, microcomputer control, gimbal suspension support structure, slide bearing structure, etc.

It is a full auto player that starts playback just by setting a record and pressing the start button.

The cartridge is equipped with EPC-P202C, a plug-in connector type MM cartridge.
By adopting a pure boron cantilever and an all-laminate core magnetic circuit with extremely low attenuation, wide-band frequency characteristics are realized.

Excellent rotational characteristics are obtained by the use of a unique integrated structure D. D. and all-around detection FG for the drive part.

The upper part of the cabinet is made of precision aluminum die-cast, and the lower part is made of zinc die-cast and TNRC bottom base with anti-vibration measures.

Separately sold player stand can be used.
