Our most inno­vative design ever deve­loped. The use of ultra tight tole­rance, bespoke bea­rings that are DLC trea­ted to make them ultra durable, and further reduce friction by over 50 % com­pared to any other high class bea­ring in the market. Our DLC bea­rings are simply the best in terms of preci­sion, low fric­tion and inno­vative vibration-absor­bing material. A symbio­sis that has been thought out through to the smallest and most intricate detail. Resol­ving the contra­diction between stiff­ness and lightness in move­ment making the TA-10000 NEO the ulti­mate partner for the ulti­mate turntables.

Our brand new approach to height adjust­ment (VTA) on the fly is free of the negative effects, that the cons­truc­tion of move­ments have. We ensure the superb sonic quali­ties of the TA-10000 NEO are not nega­tively influen­ced by com­fort features.
