Kenwood KD-5070

Two-Speed Fully Automatic Direct Drive Turntable

Description

The 20-pole, 30 slot brushless DC motor turns at precise servo-controlled speeds for outstanding performance in terms of rumble, wow and flutter.

Variable speed control permits precision speed settings using power-line frequency as the reference, but can be varied by +-3% for music pitch-matching.

The stroboscope indicates precise speed setting.

Manual or fully automatic action of the tonearm allows positioning and lifting automatically at the start and end of records.

There is automatic shut-off at end of play and manual override.

The precision tone arm is of the static balance type with anti-skate correction and a plug-in EIA headshell.

The cueing lever is viscous damped and raises and lowers the arm for gentle pause operations.

A massive ARCB (anti resonance compression base) is used to house the motor unit.

This is moulded from limestone particles, glass powders and unsaturated resin to provide the ideal base structure.
