TECHNICS SL-40CBT TERRACOTTA BROWN

SL-40CBT TERRACOTTA BROWN

Premium Class;
- manual direct-drive turntable with rigid plinth, optional built-in MM Phono preamplifier and 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 launched in 1972 and established as an absolute reference in the music industry (Hi-Fi, professional, DJ), here explicitly offered in a modern Hi-Fi version, aimed at delivering a purely analog listening experience combined with the practicality of contemporary connection methods, with astonishing design, engineering, and build quality, well above its target market;
- newly designed Coreless DC brushless direct-drive motor without an iron core, capable of minimizing harmonic distortions and vibrations, ensuring smooth and precise rotation, with consistent performance over time and able to eliminate "cogging" phenomena, the rotational irregularities originating, in standard electric motors, from the interaction between the rotor magnets and the stator slots;
- digital motor control circuit, capable of detecting rotation speed in real-time, calculating and applying any corrections to raise accuracy to the highest levels;
- 1.26 kg die-cast aluminum platter with reinforced ribs and a direct-mount motor magnet;
- layout with separate printed circuit boards for power supply, motor control, and for the Phono preamplifier and equalization stage, located far from the tonearm and the audio signal generated by the cartridge;
- universal S-shaped tonearm with gimbal suspension and static balance, made of very light aluminum alloy with newly designed high-precision bearings, equipped with graduated anti-skating and tracking force adjustment tools with counterweight;
- robust 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;
- analog MM Phono stage with high-quality circuit and components, isolated and with a gain of 36.5 dB;
- Bluetooth ver. 5.4 transmitter with Qualcomm aptX Adaptive and SBC codecs, allowing wireless connection of the turntable with high-quality playback to active speakers, wireless headphones, or amplifiers equipped with a Bluetooth receiver;
- high-level Audio-Technica AT-VM95C moving magnet (MM) cartridge, with conical stylus and an output voltage of 4 mV;
- rotation speeds of 33 1/3 RPM and 45 RPM;
- high motor torque with lightning-fast start-up response, from standstill to 33 and 1/3 RPM in 0.7 seconds, and electronically controlled braking system;
- wow & flutter deviations less than 0.025% WRMS, at the limits of measurement;
- dual set of individual L/R RCA connectors with dedicated selector to utilize Phono level output (Phono preamplifier deactivated) or line level (Phono preamplifier activated);
- dust cover, slipmat, EP record adapter, headshell, Audio-Technica AT-VM95C cartridge, audio cable, ground cable, and power cable included;
- Terracotta Brown finish;
- dimensions (W x H x D) 430 x 128 x 353 mm;
- weight 7.1 Kg.
