Clearaudio Concept Silver/Black Turntable With Concept MC Cartridge + Dust Cover

Description

Beneath the sleek, contemporary exterior is a level of technical sophistication unique to Clearaudio. The concept’s body is carefully crafted from medium-density wood fibre (or, optionally, pressure-formed solid wood) with a selection of smart made-to-match surface finishes. The body’s upper layer incorporates a special high-tech satined plastic compound designed to minimise unwanted resonance. The DC motor is fed by an external voltage-stabilised power supply and is completely decoupled from the turntable’s body to ensure no mechanical interference. The concept tonearm features a magnetic bearing that is friction-free for extremely low distortion and superb performance. The package is completed with the high quality CONCEPT MM or CONCEPT MC cartridge (Upgrade possible). Innovative, high-performing, user-friendly and affordable. Now that’s what we call an unbeatable concept.
