Low-mass straight tonearm

Up-front controls

Auto return convenience

 

The design objectives for our lowest cost turntable were for the most performance and features at a price easily accessible to anyone. Check the features and specifications of the L-A21 and you'll agree that we met all our design objectives. Our reliable belt-drive system eliminates vibration and noise and promotes smooth platter rotation. And our motor is an advanced synchronous type - impervious to changes in line voltage. Our tonearm, like those found on our more expensive models, is of a low-mass design for high tracking and low distortion while its straight tube design reduces spurious movement of the arm due to dynamic torsion. Our special headshell is non-resonant yet extremely rigid. We've also included a cueing device and the auto return mechanism. Like all its operating controls, the cue button is outside the closed dust cover so there's little chance of nudging the tonearm and damaging record or stylus . All in all, a great bargain at any price.
