The Kyocera
PL-910 turntable is not only the top of the Kyocera turntable line, it will
stand in audio history as one of the finest turntables ever built. It
incorporates the most up-to-date technology and materials to accomplish the
age-old goal of all turntable designers; rotational stability and
resonance-free performance.
Consideration
has been given to every last detail in the manufacture of this masterpiece,
down to the actual construction materials themselves. The plater, for example, has been
manufactured on Fine Ceramics - to be precise, alumina-ceramics-proven to
possess hardness qualities close to those of diamond - and vibration -
attenuating characteristics far superior to conventional materials such as
ordinary aluminum. This Fine Ceramics platter is placed in full planar contact
with an aluminum sub-platter of a different resonance frequency, thereby
dramatically reducing unwanted resonances. Fine ceramics is used further in the
platter spindle and the thrust bearings of the spindle. These extremely hard
thrust bearings are capable of supporting the heavy platter without excessive
wear, creating an ultra-precise pivot point for extremely smooth rotation.
The base
chassis of the PL-910 is made of Ceramic Compound Resin (CCR) to isolate the turntable itself from external
vibration (mechanical and acoustical feedback). The "howling"
normally experienced in the presence of loud signals from large loudspeakers is
unheard of in the PL-910.
Although the
PL-910 is equipped with a heavily damped powerful Dc-servo brushless motor, the
actual drive system is via belt to remove any last possible doubt concering
rotational stability.
Features
Ceramic
Compound Resin (CCR) base chassis successfully isolates external vibration.
A
high-purity alumina-ceramics platter mounted in full planar contact with an
aluminum sub platter with differnt resonance characteristics creates an effective resonance barrier.
Dual-suspension
system separates the turntable and tonearm from the sub-chassis to isolate any
possible external sources of vibration.
DC-servo
brushless motor belt-drive system.
Heavily-damped
motor avoids the creation of internal vibrations. Self-illuminated strobe with
on/off switch.
4 mm thick
transparent acrylic cover.
Four types
of optional arm bases to mount most high quality separate tonearms.

Is this the same Kyocera who makes Japanese bulldozers?
