A quiet-running synchronous motor with silicone belt is driving a low-resonance platter made from MDF. A new motor control with DC power supply minimzes unwanted vibration effectively. The main platter bearing consists of stainless steelspindle and bronze bushing with Teflon bottom to seccure low friction.  

The main chassis is made from lightweight, but very stiff particle board. Essential II utilises a straight 8,6" aluminium tonearm design made from a single piece of aluminium with sapphire bearings, which offers a far better „plug & play" solution, than itʽs predecessor. Special feet effectively decouples the turntable from the surface.

Specifications:

• speed : 33, 45 (manual speed change)

• principle : belt drive

• Speed variance : 33: 0,14% 45: 0,25%

• Wow & flutter : 0,12%

• platter : 300mm MDF with felt mat (0,8kg)

• main bearing : stainless steel

• tonearm : 8,6” aluminium

• effective : arm length 218,5 mm

• overhang : 22,0mm

• effective tonearmmass : 8,0gr

• counterweight for mass : 3 - 5,5g (included)

• tracking force range : 0 - 25mn (OM5 18mn recommended)

• included accessory : power supply, dust cover

• Power consumption : 4,5 watts

• dimensions : 420 x 112 x 330mm (WxHxD)
