Technics SL-1500C White Turntable & Sound Smith Otello Cartridge Complete Minty

Description: Technics SL-1500C White Turntable & Sound Smith Otello CartridgeIncludes White and Black Headshells and Rubber and Felt Technics Logo Mats If purchased New with this Cartridge and Extra Mat and Headshell the Retail Value is 1999.95 This unit is basically new, they may be some dust, but other than that is works perfect and I am including a $600.00 Top of the Line Moving Coil Cartridge from Sound Smith, the Otello. This is the harder to find and quite stunning White Version of the Unit. Will ship in original boxes with full insurance, tracking and signature on delivery. I have owned many Cartridges priced up to $900 and never have I heard as good sounding a unit as the Otello. Personal Opinion, listening to all kinds of music from Rock to Jass, Easy Listening and Classical, it sound so good on pretty much everything we have tried. Most sellers are offering this with a entry level Ortofon that I used to have as well and did not like at all, got tiring real quick and that unit is a $99 value. Turntable will be repacked as original so you will need to set it up as new when you get itOnly selling due to family medical issues creating money issues More info below on Cartridge and Turntable. The Otello is Soundsmith’s $599.00 Fixed Coil design, realizing an affordable pathway into the world of high-performance cartridges. Built by hand like all Soundsmith cartridges, the Otello provides a perfect balance of tone and resolution at a great price. The result is a cartridge that is at ease with any type of music. Just slightly warmer than other Soundsmith designs, Otello yields a richness of timbre that is utterly beguiling with a level of speed and dynamic range that no other cartridge in this price. The result? A wonderful design that gives the warmth of MM and the light-footedness of Moving Iron design. Accurate rotation of phono records and precise trackingof record grooves for faithful sound reproductionCoreless Direct Drive Motor Achieving Stable RotationThe high-quality sound realized by the exceptional S/N ratio and high rotation accuracy of the direct drive system employed in Technics turntable products has captivated the hearts of audiophiles all over the world. The SL-1500C inherits the same high-quality sound found in Technics’ high-end turntable models. It uses asingle-rotor, coreless direct drive motor in which the stator has no core andeliminates the rotation irregularity called cogging. In this motor, themagnetic force of the rotor magnets was improved to the highest possible level,and the gap between the coreless stator and rotor magnets was optimised thusachieving high torque performance equaling that of the SL-1200MK5 whileeliminating cogging. Furthermore, the motor control was optimised in accordancewith the platter weight. As a result, the SL-1500C has realized high rotationaccuracy and high performance, and eliminated the need for parts replacementand maintenance. Another advantage of the direct drive system is itslong-lasting, high reliability. High Accuracy Motor Control In the direct drive system, the motor is connected directly to the platter so that the motor rotation speed becomes the rotation speed of the phono record. Therefore it is extremely important to control the drive motor’s rotation speed to ensure stability. The SL-1500C utilizes the latest motor control technology refined through the development of Blu-ray disc products. Furthermore, the FG coil pattern of the full-circumference detection FG system was improved in precision to achieve more detailed measurement of platter rotation speed. Highly Sensitive Tonearm Accurately Reads the Signal Stored in the Record Groove The tonearm, which is responsible for accurately reading the signal by tracking the groove on the phono record, is a static-balance universal S-shape tonearm, another Technics tradition. The tonearm tube is made of lightweight, high-rigidity aluminum. The bearing section of the gimbal suspension construction tonearm consists of amachined housing and high-precision bearing to provide high initial motionsensitivity. All in all, the tonearm accurately traces the groove on the recordand reads the signal. Two-layer Structure Platter with Improved VibrationDamping Performance The platter on which a vinyl record is placed features a two-layer structure with deadening rubber on the entire back surface to eliminate unwanted resonance in the aluminium die-cast platter. The platter offers high rigidity and outstanding vibration-damping characteristics to prevent harmful vibration from being transmitted to the record and therefore delivers clear sound. High Rigidity Cabinet and High Damping Insulator for Thorough Shut-out of All Vibrations The chassis, an essential part for reducing external vibrations, inherits the audio quality enhancement technology fostered through the development of high-end turntables. The aluminium die-cast chassis is rigidly integrated with a special material consisting of ABS mixed with glass fibre to achieve a two-layer construction. The combination of this special high-rigidity material and a metal chassis raised the rigidity and vibration-damping performance to higher levels,resulting in a robust cabinet for beautiful sound reproduction. The insulator is comprised of a spring and rubber to provide optimal frequencycharacteristics. This not only assures high sound quality and superb howlingresistance but also effectively shuts out external vibrations under high soundlevel conditions. Complete package for the enhancement of record playingenjoyment Built-in Phono EQ Enables Connecting to a Variety ofDevices The SL-1500C has a built-in phono equalizer amp compatible with MM cartridges so it can be connected to an audio product that does not have phono input terminals. The dedicated power supply for the phono equalizer is isolated from the power supply for the motor and control circuitry to reduce the effect of noise.Furthermore, the shield structure suppresses the effect of external noise. As aresult, high-purity signal amplification is realized. Using the SL-1500C andthe audio equipment you have, you can enjoy music from a vinyl record in highsound quality.
