Direct Drive
DC Servo Motor
Micro Seiki DD-31 turntables utilize a direct-driven DC servo-controlled drive
motor. The advantages of this type of motor/transmissionless system are extreme
speed stability and increassed torque.
Unaffected by temperature changes and voltage fluctuations, the
resultant wow and flutter components are less than 0,03% WRMS and the
signal-to-noise ratio greater than 63 dB JIS (75 dB DIN-B).
Low-Mass
Straight Tonearm with Dual Radial Bearings
A special
aluminum alloy is used to give the arm its formidable strength and
exceptionally low mass. Both qualities are needed to take full advantage of
today's supercompliant cartridges. The straight-line geometry assures the most
accurate tracking angles as well as contributing to the arm's low mass. A
pair of precision radial bearings give
the arm a lateral sensitivity of only 10 milligrams.
Even the
normally-overlooked signal connectors are of the constant-wipe type, insuring
contact maintenance at all times.
Headshell
Thanks to
the use of carbon fibres, the headshell is as light and rigid as the arm
itself. It joins the arm with a semi-integrated plug-in system that utilizes
thick gold-plated wiping-type contacts. Oxygen-free copper leads are used to
exclude electromagnetic influences (eddy-current lossles) resulting in
exceptional transmission characteristics (improved S/N ratio)
Skating
Force Cancellation
Anti-skating
is provided by a precision calibrated adjustment to axactly match vertical
tracking force.
Oil Damped
Cueing
Feather-light
contact between stylus and record groove is provided by the oil-damped cueing
system. It is silent, smooth and, at the end of a record, completely automatic.
Genuine Wood
Base
One of the
best acoustical dampening materials known is wood. It is used as the base
material for all Micro Seiki turntables and is available in both natural
rosewood and ebony finishes.
Special feet
All Micro
Seiki turntable systems are equipped with specially-developed anti-feedback
feet. The chart below shows a comparison between the isolation provided by
conventional rubber feet and the Micro Seiki feet. As it apparent, sub-sonic
resonance is greatly reduced by the Micro Seiki design.
