Our new turntable model, the tt9 is designed upon advanced solutions for our top models, the tt42 and the Kubrick DCX. Differently shaped elements, precisely machined and made from the different materials like Cast Acrylic, Derlin (POM-engineering plastic) and aluminum, together form a light, yet highly rigid assembly.
 
The solid and light construction of the turntable assembly has an important feature of preventing the sound-damaging resonance energy to be stored in the assembly itself; without the excessive mass where the resonances can be stored, they are pretty much channeled out from the assembly itself. The dimensions and shape of the plinth and sub-plinth elements (including the holes arrangements in the elements), were optimized employing Golden Ratio and Fibonacci sequence, thus gaining uniform vibration damping and the reduction of the Moment of inertia in all three planes (along all three axes) to the center of the mass.
 

Further, tt9 continues our tradition of designing compact high quality turntables which can be considered as an affordable high-end by their performance, but at the same time being extremely user friendly. Set-up of the tt9 is intuitive and straightforward, and does not require any special tools and/or an extensive technical experience.
 
Main bearing is of an inverted type with stainless steel top outer cup, brass spindle sleeve and stainless steel spindle, all machined to the highest accuracy and employs Derlin thrust plate. Sub-platter is precisely machined from Derlin (POM-engineering plastic) and it is rigidly secured to the main bearing.

 
The platter, 30mm thick and weighing 2.5kg is precisely machined from the cast Acrylic and together with the advanced main bearing ensures smooth rotation and rumble and noise free performance. It has a 1.0mm deep recess carved on the top for the LP record's paper label, thus when LP record is placed on it, it will lay flat. If you are afraid that records will slip when placed straight onto the Acrylic platter, please use the record clamp included with your tt9, the tt Clamp to firmly clamp/press the LP record onto the platter for the superior sound.

 
Advanced main bearing and solid aluminum arm-board are mounted directly onto the aluminum made sub-plinth which is in turn 3-point coupled (by means of rubber-cork washers of different thickness and diameters) to the main plinth made of cast Acrylic and Derlin (POM) in order to maximize the performance and minimize acoustic break through. The motor assembly machined from Derlin (POM) is rigidly mounted onto the main plinth.
 
The drive system is built around the same high quality DC motor used in our advanced turntable models; It's electronically controlled, providing an easy operation and fine speed adjustment feature for both speeds (if required). Speed changing and start/stop functions are simple to operate, just toggle (flip) the on/off and 33/45 toggle switches.

 
The turntable is supported by three adjustable cones machined from Derlin (POM) to allow easy leveling and optimum coupling to the surface that it sits on. Supporting cones are coupled to the main plinth by means of rubber-cork washers of different thickness and diameters, providing better vibration transmitting control.
 
High quality Soulines KiVi M3 tonearm is included (pre-mounted) with the tt9 turntable, and with the addition of the quality cartridge it will form an excellent vinyl LP's replaying system.
