We put a little more feature into each feature.

The Miracord 50H not only offers more features than any top quality automatic turntable on the market, but each feature offers more. Here's what we mean.

---Two worthy competitors offer a kind of synchronous motor. Neither motor, however, can qualify as a hysteresis synchronous motor. And, neither is a Papst hysteresis synchronous motor. The Papst is the one used in professional studio record-playing equipment. The Miracord 50H uses the Papst hysteresis synchronous motor with outer rotor for unvarying speed accuracy, regardless of the voltage or load fluctuation.

---When examining the cueing feature, be sure to ask whether cueing works in both automatic and manual modes. Because, in automatic, where one leading automatic turntable doesn't work, cueing represents the ideal device to interrupt play for just a moment when there are a stack of records on the spindle. The Miracord 50H provides silicone-damped cueing in both modes.

---Stylus overhang adjustment is essential for optimum tracking. Another automatic turntable does feature this adjustment, but it's internal and difficult to set. The Miracord 50H offers external overhang adjustment with built-in gauge no shifting, no guess work, no templates. You can line up your stylus in seconds accurately.

---Now here's the feature no one has. Those light touch pushbuttons that make it so easy for you to enjoy all of those other wonderful Miracord 50H features. The pushbuttons provide simple, foolproof operation. For example, the 50H is the only automatic changer that can go from manual to automatic or vice versa without re-setting.

---Over the past few years, Miracord 50H has proven its reliability and enhanced its position of leadership by its superb performance in thousands of home music systems. The finest automatic turntable available today costs $169.50. At leading hi-fi dealers.
