A Reimagined Icon at the Heart of the Concorde Range
Symbolic of club turntables, the Concorde series has been revamped to offer greater robustness, precision, and practicality. The new simplified range revolves around five models - "MIX," "DJ," "SCRATCH," "DIGITAL," and "CLUB." The "DJ" model positions itself as the reliable and versatile choice for everyday mixing, balancing the flexibility of a "MIX" with the radical grip of a "SCRATCH."
For Which DJs and Settings?
Designed for resident DJs, mobile DJs, and versatile selectors, the Concorde DJ excels in clubs, bars, events, and radio stations. Its tolerant spherical stylus facilitates cueing, secures back-cueing, and allows scratch phases without skipping, while maintaining a full and consistent sound on both new and worn vinyl.
Features and Innovations
The widened cartridge body improves grip and rigidity, while the new shape offers better visibility of the diamond for more precise cue points. The balanced cantilever optimizes stability and groove holding, ensuring clean tracking even at high energy. With a frequency response of 20-20,000 Hz and a recommended tracking force of 4 g, the Concorde DJ delivers a powerful signal, firm bass, and excellent resistance to mechanical feedback, ideal for modern sound reinforcement systems.
