The tonearm automatically lifts, shifts across and drops with the push of a button. Simply place the vinyl record on the platter and push the start button. The CS 429 has a fully adjustable tonearm. This provides the option to change the pickup in the future and to alter the tracking force and anti-skating accordingly. The internal rubber damping construction decouples the tonearm and platter from external vibrations. This very quiet platform provides an excellent sound performance combined with precise, optical speed control." - Dual</p> <h4>🔑KEY FEATURES</h4> <ul> <li>solid aluminum tonearm w/ adjustable tracking force + anti-skate</li> <li>aluminum die-cast platter</li> <li>tonearm + platter <meta charset="utf-8">decoupled from external vibrations via <meta charset="utf-8">internal rubber damping construction </li> <li>elastomer vibration absorber integrated feet</li> <li> <meta charset="utf-8">precision-cut belt for reduced wow + flutter</li> <li>solid platter bearing w/ hardened steel spindle + brass bushing</li> </ul> <h4>🔎TECH SPECS</h4> <ul> <li> <meta charset="utf-8">drive principle: belt-drive w/ electronic speed control</li> <li>platter bearing: hardened steel spindle brass bushing</li> <li>tonearm bearing: ball-bearing</li> <li>effective tonearm length: 221.5 mm</li> <li>tonearm overhang: 19 mm</li> <li>stylus pressure range: 0 g bis 4 g</li> <li>cartridge weight range: 5 g bis 9 g</li> <li>wow & flutter: < ±0,08 % (DIN WTD)</li> <li>feet: Ø 62 mm / Elastomer</li> <li>dimensions (w/ dustcover): 17.12" x 14.45" 5.71″ / 435 x 367 x 145 mm</li> <li>weight (without dustcover): 13.67 lbs / 6.2 kg</li> </ul> <h4>📦COMES WITH</h4> <ul> <li>2.5mm rubber platter mat<br> </li> <li>45 adaptor</li> <li>dustcover</li> <li>Ortofon 2M Red cartridge (pre-mounted to headshell)</li> <li>power supply</li> <li>coaxial stereo audio cable</li> </ul>
