The new Kyocera PL-701 Full Automatic Belt Drive Turntable
Steady as a rock.
To avoid turntable rumble, hum and howling, stability is all. Steadiness of the needle in the groove-and in the platter rotation.
Kyocera's solution: It starts with ceramics.
This unique material provides uncommon stability and isolation of mechanical and electrical feedback. The result is a performance that is virtually free of vibration and resonance.
A rigid ceramic-compound resin forms the subchassis of the PL-701. To further eliminate vibration, this subchassis is suspended by three springs within a sturdy wood base.
The base has four adjustable shock-mounted feet. This dual-isolation foundation supports the platter and arm. For even greater stability and uniform rotation, the platter weighs in at 3.3 lbs. Add an advanced two-motor belt drive system to eliminate motor vibration and you have a turntable that is truly steady as al rock.
Other features:
Straight aluminum tubular low-mass tonearm with removable carbon fiber shell.
Micro-computer electronic sensing non-friction tonearm control.
Stabilizer (0.7 lb) with built-in two-speed stroboscope.
Wow and flutter of 0.03%. Signal-to-noise ratio of 70 dB (DIN-B)
