A Turntable Designed for Modern Listening, Balancing Vinyl Tradition and Practicality

This vinyl turntable follows a "plug and play" approach: belt drive and DC motor promote steady rotation, while electronic control simplifies switching between 33 1/3 and 45 RPM. The integration of a (deactivatable) RIAA phono preamp allows use on a standard line input or on a hi-fi system equipped with a dedicated phono stage.

The wooden chassis combined with damping feet aims to reduce vibration transmission for a more stable sound, especially in a living room, office, or listening room. The setup is completed with an acrylic dust cover, practical for daily protection of the platter and tonearm.

Who Is This Vinyl Turntable For?

This model is especially suitable for vinyl enthusiasts seeking an automatic turntable that is easy to use and quick to set up, without sacrificing essentials: a reputable cartridge, a carbon tonearm, and a base that limits resonances. It will easily fit into a domestic hi-fi system, with active speakers (via line input) or an amplifier, and remains relevant in a home studio for digitizing records via a line input.

For a DJ, it can be used for listening, sampling, and preparation in a quiet environment. However, its "belt + automatic" design primarily targets listening rather than intensive performance uses (such as scratching and aggressive handling), where direct drive is generally preferred.
