In the second half of the Eighties, this was the dominant player par excellence among the string-driven turntables, both on audiophile terrain and in the field of modern design. The mechanics run quietly and precisely. The servo motor drives the 3 lb heavy Gun-Metal sub-plateau with a flat string on which the 4 ponds aluminium plateau rests. The double-tube, resonance-poor carbon-fibre tonearm with interchangeable head shell allows the complete separation of the left and right signal. The arm has a needle-sparing adjustable photoelectric end turn. The last 2 pictures are scans of a test in German STEREO. This test was conducted in the introductory year 1984 and published in the December issue. Dimensions: 48 x 16 x 38 cm. Weight: 14 Kg. In production: 1984 - 1989 New price in NL: €3200.- ****************************************************************************************************** Hofkamp & van Droffelaar: Specialists in vintage Hi-Fi and analogue camera technology with own technical service.
