Key Features & Technical Excellence

Wireless Freedom with Built-in Bluetooth® Enjoy the rich character of vinyl without cable constraints. The integrated Bluetooth® 5.4 transmitter (supporting Qualcomm® aptX™ Adaptive and SBC codecs) allows instant connection to wireless speakers or headphones, making analogue sound accessible throughout the home.

Ready to Play Out of the Box - Includes Audio-Technica AT-VM95C cartridge with conical stylus for clear sound reproduction - Built-in MM phono equalizer precisely tuned to the included cartridge - Simply connect to active speakers or amplifier with passive speakers for immediate vinyl enjoyment

Precision Engineering Throughout - Coreless Direct Drive Motor: Brushless DC motor with digital control for exceptional rotation accuracy (0.025% wow and flutter W.R.M.S.) 

1.26kg Die-Cast Aluminium Platter: Reinforced ribs and directly mounted motor magnet ensure rigid rotation and precise torque control

Traditional S-Shaped Tonearm: 230mm effective length with micron-level precision engineering for high tracking performance 

Optimized Insulators: Newly tuned rubber hardness shifts resonance outside the audible range for excellent vibration resistance

Intelligent Design

Separate PCBs for power, motor control, and phono equalization are strategically placed away from the tonearm with crossover-free wiring, minimizing sound distortion. Digital control elevates rotation accuracy through precise speed detection, per-unit production calibration, and digitally optimized motor drive signals. Premium components throughout the phono circuit deliver clear sound with minimal noise.
