Key Features of the TecnoDec Entry-Level Turntable
Impedance-Matched Acrylic Platter
Crafted from a material acoustically similar to vinyl, the platter minimizes unwanted resonances and offers a neutral sound profile that enhances detail and accuracy in playback.
Free-Standing High-Precision Motor Unit
Machined from aircraft-grade aluminum, the standalone DC motor minimizes vibration transfer. Its isolated design ensures only the drive belt connects to the turntable, enhancing clarity and definition in every rotation.
Inverted Oil-Circulating Main Bearing
The innovative bearing system uses a top-point rotation and internal oil-circulating mechanism to reduce friction, noise, and wear—delivering ultra-smooth platter motion and consistent audio fidelity.
Sorbothane-Damped Feet for Vibration Control
High-grade Sorbothane inserts isolate the turntable from external vibrations, allowing it to perform with stability even on less-than-ideal surfaces.
