Featuring a heavy, precision CNC-machined MDF main chassis finished in 10 layers of hand-polished piano-black lacquer, its contoured edges eliminate internal standing waves and unwanted acoustic resonances. Each turntable undergoes a meticulous two-day assembly process and a rigorous four-step quality control inspection to guarantee pristine mechanical and sonic performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eDriven by an isolated motor housed in a solid aluminum block, the Signature 12.2 utilizes a flywheel belt-drive system powered by a precision DC-driven AC generator for flawless 33 and 45 RPM speed stability. The massive 10.55 kg TPE-damped aluminum platter features an integrated recycled vinyl top mat and sits on an inverted ceramic bearing that is magnetically decoupled to eliminate rumble and bearing noise.
