JVC QL-10 turntable

 

The QL-10 Quartz Turntable is a distinguished state-of-the-art. Product and JVC is proud to place it at the top of our wide line. Like the finest precision measuring apparatus, it offers a digital speed counter of unimpeachable reliability. There is a1 Hz stop pitch control to answer the needs of professional users and musicans alike, along with precision performance as represented by the 0,02% wow and flutter (WRMS) and other outstanding specifications.

JVC Quartz and Pitch Control

Only JVC Quartz technology as offered in the QL-10 can offer the incontestably unique advantage of Pitch Control in steps of a miniscule 1 Hz over a ±6 Hz range in reference to the international standard pitch of a - 440 Hz.

While other makers offer their quartz turntables with pitch control facility, ours is just about the only system to maintain that accuracy by keeping the Quartz servo in operation.

 

Digital Speed Counter

This JVC Quartz model incorporates a 4-digit LED counter to indicate the speed of the platter within .01 rpm. The indication accuracy of this built-in precision digital measuring apparatus is entirely dependable.

 

Quick Start/Stop

The platter of the QL-10 reaches an exact 33-⅓ rpm speed in less than 0,6 sec. after you push the Start button. Stop time is under one second.

Other features of the Ql-10 include:

New Gimbal Support Tonearm (height-adjustable) in a multi-layered base, cil-damped cueing, an efficient, low-hum toroidal power transformer, electronic switching, "no-cogging" core-less DC motor, and more.
