TECHNICS SL-40CBT GREY

SL-40CBT GREY

Premium Class;
- manual direct-drive rigid chassis turntable with optional MM Phono preamplifier and built-in Bluetooth transmitter, supplied with Audio-Technica AT-VM95C MM cartridge;
- reinterpretation of what has always been, unanimously, recognized as the most iconic model in the history of direct-drive turntables, the legendary Technics SL-1200 commercialized in 1972 and established as the absolute reference in the music industry (Hi-Fi, professional, DJ), here specifically designed in a modern Hi-Fi version, aimed at delivering a purely analog listening experience combined with the convenience of contemporary connection modes, with surprising design, engineering and build quality, well above its product category;
- new generation Coreless direct-drive DC brushless motor with no iron core, capable of minimizing harmonic distortion and vibrations, ensuring smooth and precise rotation, with consistent performance over time and eliminating "cogging" phenomena, the rotation irregularities originating in standard electric motors from the interaction between rotor magnets and stator slots;
- digital motor control circuit, able to detect rotation speed in real time, calculating and applying any corrections to increase its accuracy to the highest levels;
- die-cast aluminum platter weighing 1.26 kg with reinforced ribs and a motor magnet with direct mounting;
- layout with separate printed circuits for power supply, motor control and Phono preamplification and equalization stage, placed away from the tonearm and from the audio signal generated by the cartridge;
- cardanic suspension tonearm and universal static balancing with "S" profile in lightweight aluminum alloy with newly designed high-precision bearings, equipped with graduated adjustment tools for antiskating and tracking force weight with counterweight;
- sturdy MDF chassis with elegant ultra-minimalist design;
- effective anti-vibration feet made with a damping rubber compound whose composition is calibrated to shift resonances outside the audible frequency range;
- MM analog Phono stage with high-quality circuit and components, isolated and with 36.5 dB gain;
- Bluetooth ver. 5.4 transmitter with Qualcomm aptX Adaptive and SBC codec, which allows you to connect the turntable wirelessly and with high reproduction quality to active speakers, wireless headphones or amplifiers equipped with Bluetooth receiver;
- high-level Audio-Technica AT-VM95C moving magnet (MM) cartridge, with conical stylus and output voltage of 4 mV;- rotation speed at 33 1/3 RPM and 45 RPM;
- high motor torque with lightning-fast start response, from standstill to 33 1/3 RPM in 0.7 seconds, and electronically controlled braking system;
- oscillation and vibration deviations (wow & flutter) below 0.025% WRMS, at the limits of measurability;
- dual set of individual L/R RCA connectors with dedicated selector to exploit Phono level output (Phono preamplifier disabled) or line (Phono preamplifier enabled);
- dust cover, mat, EP disc adapter, tone arm headshell, Audio-Technica AT-VM95C cartridge, audio cable, ground cable and power cable included;
- Grey finish;
- dimensions (W x H x D) 430 x 128 x 353 mm;
