Precision
Belt-Drive with 4-pole Synchronous Motor
Stable
rotation of the 30 cm die-cast aluminum alloy platter is maintained by the
carefully engineered 4-pole synchronous motor and belt drive system. The smooth
running of the motor is unaffected by fluctuations in line voltage and load,
while even the slightest vibrations from the motor are absorbed by the
polyurethane belt. High performance is exemplified by the 0,07% (WRMS) wow and
flutter, and 63 dB (DIN-B) signal to noise ratio.
High
Sensitivity S-Shaped Tonearm
The tonearm
gimbal incorporates high precision angular contacct bearings, whose low
vibration and friction ensure high sensitivity together with long term
reliability. Antiskating and lateral balance controls are included for optimum
performance with high compliance cartridges and light tracking forces, and the
direct readout of the tracking force is especially convenient when replacing
the cartridge.
Numerous
Additional Features
A host of
additional features enhance the convenience and performance of the PL-112D.
Among these are a lightweight, high rigidity aluminum headshell, low
capacitance output cord, free-stop dust cover hinges that allow easy
installation and removal, and an oil-damped tonearm elevation mechanism
toprotect valuable records and stylus. The interior of the cabinet is lined
with aluminum foil to scren out external electrical noise which is often picked
up from other household appliances, while motor and external vibrations are
also isolated by the vibration-absorbing spring suspension design.
Sophisticated
Cabinet Styling
The
baseplate is made from mineral soild, a new high density material which
combines excellent acoustic absorption properties to prevent resonance with
high strength and attractive finish. In addition the elegant wood grain finish
of the cabinet ideally matches the high quality engineering of the PL-112D.
