Unmatched Sound Quality
The MT2 is engineered for audiophiles who demand nothing but the best. Featuring a Sumiko Moonstone cartridge, this next-gen moving magnet phono pickup is designed to deliver an unparalleled listening experience. With its low moving mass and output, the Moonstone captures every nuance of your vinyl, transcribing sonic imagery with weight, richness, and depth. Imagine sinking into your favorite album, feeling the music wrap around you like a warm blanket-this is what the MT2 offers.
Precision Engineering
What sets the MT2 apart from the competition? It’s all in the details. The tonearm is crafted from dural-aluminum and features special damping materials, making it lightweight yet incredibly rigid. The noise-free vertical bearings utilize precision ceramic surfaces with damping fluid, while the horizontal bearing boasts a gimballed sapphire design. This meticulous engineering ensures that every note is reproduced with stunning accuracy, allowing you to enjoy your records as the artist intended.
Stability and Vibration Control
Say goodbye to unwanted noise and hello to crystal-clear playback! The MT2’s belt-driven, solid black outer platter is made from a dynamically balanced polyoxymethylene (POM) material that is over 1″ thick. This hefty design not only resists external vibrations but also provides the perfect flywheel action for stable playback speed. The inner platter, crafted from CNC-precision milled aluminum, rotates on a polished and tempered steel shaft in a sintered bronze bushing, ensuring smooth operation for years to come.
Easy Setup and Use
Worried about complicated setups? Fear not! The MT2 is virtually ready to use right out of the box. With just a few simple setup steps, you’ll be spinning your favorite vinyl in no time. It plays both 33-1/3 and 45 rpm records, making it versatile enough for any vinyl collection. Plus, the included dust cover keeps your turntable looking pristine, so you can focus on what really matters-enjoying the music!
Stylish Design
Not only does the MT2 perform like a dream, but it also looks stunning in any setting. A subtle green glow emanates from under the platter and the outer edges of the plinth, adding a touch of refined ambiance to your space. Whether you’re hosting a gathering or enjoying a quiet evening at home, this turntable is sure to impress your guests.
