FEATURES
(TURNTABLE SECTION)
035 CM (13-25/32") ULTRA-LARGE DIAMETER
TURNTABLE PLATER
35cm (13-25/32") ultra-large diameter, and 2kg (4_4 Ib) heavy weight
turntable platter has an inertial moment of 320 kg-cm
2
(109.5Ib-in
2 )
and the turntable platter
has
been
dynamically balanced_
Around the turntable platter
are strobo
marks which are used to
check
its
speed.
f)DIRECT DRIVE MOTOR
There
is
no
"wow
"
or
"flut ter"
caused by transmission mechanism
_
There
is
no vibration because this
motor
has no high-speed rotation
mechanism. The rumble is extremely low.
~ELECTRONIC
COMMUTATOR BRUSHLESS DC MOTOR
The DC motor is not affected by fluctuations of the power supply
frequency
.
Starting rotation power
is large,
with complete stability
of
speed
reached
withi
n one-half r
otation
at 33-1/3
r_p.m
_
Since
there
is no electro-magnetic hum, the
signal
to
noi
se
ratio (rumble) is ex
cellent
.
And, because the motor includes an electronic commutator,
starting
is perfectly accurate,
There
is, therefore, no speed instability
or brush deterioration as is often noted in brush commutators, no
pulse noise generated
by
brush sparking and no
sound
caused
by
rubbing of brushes.
OROTATION OF THE TURNTABLE PLATTER CAN BE
STOPPED AT ANY TIME
Th
is
is
a feature which
is
not
found
in players which have
speed
reduction
and transmi
ssions devices such
as a belt or idler.
If such
stoppin
g
is attempted on ordinary players,
the
belt or idler will
soon deteriorate and efficiency soon becomes poor.
In
this player
sys
tem
, suc
h
stopping
causes
no problem other than a
slight
increase
of
the motor current.
which
is not really a problem.
0ELECTRONIC STABILIZATION CONTROL
Because
this
se
t
includes special circuitry
to
stabili
ze
the speed
elec
tri call
y
.
speed
stability
is extremely good.
0ELECTRICAL SPEED CHANGE
There
is
no
mechanism to change the position of
the
belt
or
idler.
There is, therefore, no
"wow"
or unwanted
speed
change.
ONO EFFECT FROM FLUCTUATIONS OF POWER SUPPLY
FREQUENCY OR VOLTAGE
Since
the
motor is the
DC
type,
the
rotation speed does not depend
on
the power
sup
ply
frequency. And,
because
a DC-stabilizer
is
used,
the
set
is
not affected
_by
changes of the
power
supply
voltage,
even
if
the fluctuation
is
large
.
(l)SEMI-PERMANENT HIGH PERFORMANCE
Unlike previous
players, there
is
no reduction
or
transmission
mecha
nism, such as
a
belt or
id ler.
The motor rotates
the
turntable platter
direct ly,
at an ultar-Iow
speed.
Wear
of parts is therefore, reduced to the
ex treme
minimum and
high
performance efficiency can
be
maintained semi-permanently.
(i)POWER CONSUMPTION IS 1/100TH
THAT
OF
ORDINARY MOTORS
Motor power consumption is only 0.1W,
which
is
less than
1/100th
that of a conventional AC mOIDr. (There is a power consumption of
about 4W,
in
addition
to
the drive, on
o
ther
electronic
circui
try).
(TONEARM SECTION)
ODETACHABLE ARM PANEL
Arm
panel
can be
d etached
by unscrewing
just
in case you might
decide to change the
tonearm
.
f)EASY BALANCING AND STYLUS PRESSURE CONTROL
By a smooth
rack-and
-pi
nion
type movement,
the
balance
weight
can
be adjusted
easily.
After adjusting the balance, pull
the outside
of the
stulys
pressure knob outward, and
the
scale will be reset
aut
omatica
lly
to
the
zero position.
Now you can add
the
amount of
sty
lus
pressu
re
you
d
esire
by
directly reading the
scale.
~FEATURE-TOUCH
CUEING
Feather-touch cueing is viscous-damped in both directions
for
gentle
decent
and
ascent.
The
tonearm will be set
dow
n
exactly on the
SpOt you desire.
