The PREMIERE turntable is essentially a synthesis of creative design, painstaking craftsmanship and advanced technological processes. The primary goal which shaped the development of the PREMIERE was an uncompromising pursuit of excellence in music reproduction. The PREMIERE represents the culmination of everything that we have learned about disc reproduction;...

The Platter T h e platter of the P R E M I E R E is precision machined from a special m a g n e s i u m / aluminum alloy w h i c h c o m b i n e s rigidity and strength. T h e majority of its m a s s , concentrated around the perimeter, helps the platter achieve a high m o m e n t of inertia w h i c h contributes to s p e e d stability, and reduces flutter i n d u c e d by stylus drag during transients.
The Suspension The fundamental purpose of a turntable s u s p e n s i o n is to act as a mechanical filter for outside vibration. T h e major source of these outside vibrations is your loudspeakers w h i l e playing m u s i c , a n d this interference is c o n d u c t e d through the air, a n d via the structural m e m b e r s of your listening environment.
The FINALE Tonearm T h e s a m e degree of engineering finesse that distinguishes the P R E M I E R E turntable is evident in the d e s i g n of the F I N A L E tonearm. W h i l e the goal of the turntable is to isolate the groove from extraneous vibration, the goal of the tonearm is to isolate the cartridge.
Record manufacturers have c h a n g e d the standard for the cutting angle, so older and newer discs require differing V T A s . In practice, record manufacturers rarely adhere strictly to the standard a n y w a y , and marked differences have been observed a m o n g various releases.
