About the R.E.A.L.® Turntable

A few New Words to add to the turntable vocabulary...

  • R.ubber E.lastomer A.coustic L.aminate
  • Energy Isolation Valley
  • Inverted Hemispherical Damping Feet
  • Suspended Plinth

 

A New Approach A New Standard

“The Suspended Plinth “

The most dramatic improvement in turntable design in 30 years! The patented R.ubber E.lastomer A.coustic L.aminate controls self generation and external energies to a degree never before accomplished.

With a clean sheet of paper and the Energy Management discipline in mind, a new approach to the non-suspended turntable design emerged.

All of the active parts, the Motor, Tonearm and Spindle/bearing assembly are positioned on an acoustically neutral Isolation Damping Elastomer Plinth Core. The feet act as a damping suspension (hence suspended plinth) and a second layer of isolation is provided by the plinth elastomer.

The result is a dramatic elevation in the resolution and music realism of all past non-suspended designs.
