The M8xTT Turntable Tonearm

At the heart of the M8xTT lies its innovative tonearm, featuring a 10-inch design meticulously crafted for ultra-low resonance. The transparent acrylic bearing ring and conical aluminum tonearm tube ensure precise tracking and faithful reproduction of your vinyl collection. With full VTA and azimuth adjustability, along with two TPE-damped counterweights, this tonearm accommodates cartridges weighing between 6 and 20g, providing unparalleled flexibility and performance.

The Motor & Platter of the M8xTT Turntable

Driving the M8xTT is a meticulously engineered motor, housed in a special foam within the lower-level acrylic plinth to isolate it from the tonearm and platter. Electronic speed control allows seamless switching between 33 and 45 RPM, while a silicon belt ensures precise rotation of the heavyweight aluminum sandwich platter. The addition of inserts further enhances the flywheel effect, contributing to stable playback and exceptional sound quality.

No Small Feet

Enhancing its performance further are the four heavyweight TPE-damped aluminum feet with magnetic support, providing stability and vibration isolation. Height-adjustable and designed for optimal leveling, these feet ensure that the M8xTT operates at its peak performance in any environment.

In The Box of the M8xTT Turntable

Included in the package are essential accessories to elevate your listening experience. A heavyweight full aluminum puck stabilizes your records during playback, while a leather turntable mat reduces noise and imparts a special sonic character to your music. Additionally, a semi-balanced phono interconnect cable with gold-plated connectors ensures reliable connectivity to your preamplifier.
