Model DP40F is a single play full automatic record player developed from that principle. The basis of this full automatic record player is of course Denon's unique high-performance direct drive record player, with Phase Locked Loop (PLL).
Electronically servo controlled tonearm the unity of accurate servo technology, position selector having unique operational flexibility, and non-contact electronic, anti-skating devices are newly added in a pursuit of the ideal form of this record player system. Easy operation is also accomplished.
Now you are from that tense moment of actually lowering the stylus onto the record disc, the tonearm can be remote-controlled by your will. Full automatic record player created by Denon always have the extra and advanced key compared with other full automatic players.
Features
Tonearm can be freely operated at panel with the dust cover closed.
Equipped with the electronically servo controlled tonearm so completely different from any other full automatic record players. You can easily locate the head of a program or repeat playing froms desired part to the end of the record.
All the tonearm motion is electronically controlled so that its operational mode can be changed smoothly and quickly.
Thanks to the non-contact auto-arm mechanism, no-load is applied a the tonearm or turntable
Light stylus force, high-compliance cartridges can be used in full confidence. So gentle with no mechanical sound.
Horizontal movement of the tonearm is servo controlled allowing gentle smooth movement.
Anti-skating mechanism eliminates the scating of stylus as it functions after the stylus is lowered onto the record disc. You are now free from the worry of damaging the stylus or record disc.
A damping material inserted in the rear part of the tonearm. The tonearm is hardly affected by the external vibration.
Head shell, the effective combination of the rigid light alloy and special elastic material to supress resonance
Speed servo-control, the unique magnetic record detection system of quick response; Denon Quartz turntable is a combination of the speed servo-control and the phase control by the crystal oscillation.
Wood grain finish elegant cabinet. More than sufficient measures taken again howling.
