The DP-300F has been designed with heavier base
construction for reduced vibration and improved performance. The all new
tonearm has a removable headshell making cartridge replacement simple.
The standard mount headshell allows for any standard mount cartridge between 5 - 10 grams to be mounted and balanced.
The automatic startup feature allows the turntable to begin play with the touch
of a button, and once play has been completed, the tonearm will be returned to
the armrest gently so that the stylus and record are not damaged or
scratched. The turntable is made of rigid diecast aluminum to produce
uniform rotation for smooth flutter free operation. There is also a
manual lifter mechanism that allows you to place the needle on the record
wherever you want, so you can skip to a different song in the middle of a side.
The DP-300F includes a built-in phono equalizer to connect the player to an
integrated amp or receiver that does not have its own phono
input. This turntable is powered by a DC servo motor and belt drive system and
has rotation speeds of 33⅓ or 45 rpm. It comes with a MM
cartridge so that you can begin to enjoy your analog record collection as soon
as you connect the DP-300F to your home hi-fi system.
Refined
External Design
The
DP-300F's 4mm-thick cabinet wall that offers both strength and high density has
been beautifully finished with a gloss coating. The straight tone arm and
aluminum diecast turntable have been formed in a slim, textually attractive
design. With a body width of 434mm, it combines very elegantly with full-size
system components.
Fully
Automatic Player
When the
30cm or 17cm record size is selected, with a simple operation the tone arm
automatically moves and plays the record and then returns when playback ends.
Different cartridges can be used as desired, and since fine adjustments can
also be made for anti-skating and zero balance, ideal conditions for playing a
record can be achieved.
Straight
Tone Arm
The
DP-300F's straight tone arm brings out the maximum performance of cartridges
with superior tracing capabilities. The supplied cartridge can be replaced with
a variety of commercially available cartridges. (Compatible cartridge weight:
5.0 - 10.0 g)
Includes
High-grade MM Cartridge
Diecast
Aluminum Turntable
The
DP-300F's turntable has been constructed of diecast aluminum to achieve high
inertial mass for stable rotation. The vibration-resistant turntable sheet is
about 5mm thick and uses hologram vibration analysis to improve its ability to
hold a record.
Built-in
PHONO Equalizer
Since the
DP-300F includes a built-in PHONO equalizer, it can be connected directly to a
mini component or integrated amp that does not have a PHONO terminal. (ON/OFF switchable)
Manual Arm
Lifter
The DP-300F
is also equipped with an arm lifter mechanism to facilitate manual operation.
The arm lifter makes it easy to place or remove the needle from any location on
the record.
