The result, with SAT's CF1-9Ti tonearm, was better than with MF's long-term reference turntable, the Continuum Caliburn: "With the SAT 'table, every drum and bass element was in its place for the first timeever. The platter's top layer is made from a "proprietary advanced technical polymer infused with carbon-fiber micro powder and UHM carbon nanotubes." The XD1's price includes a custom, low-profile, Minus Kbased "negative stiffness" isolation platform, and the control electronics are housed in an outboard chassis machined from a single block of aluminum that sits on 10Hz-and-up isolation feet. Mark Gomez focused on isolation from external disturbances, speed stability, rigidity, and vacuum hold-down. This extraordinary and extraordinarily expensive Swedish turntable begins life as a Technics SP-10R direct-drive motor system, which is stripped down to a handful of essential components, reimagined, reengineered, and rebuilt to much higher mechanical standards.

He described the K3's sound as "fast, clean, detailed, highly resolving, super-transparent, effortlessly dynamic, and capable of producing unparalleled transient precision and depth-charge-deep bass 'wallop' that's fully extended yet totally free from overhang." He concluded, "As with any truly great audio product, regardless of price, the OMA K3 turntable speaks with a singular voice." Offers 33 1/3, 45, and 78rpm speeds. MF described this idiosyncratically styled, massive, and very expensive turntable as looking "somewhat like the Guggenheim Museum topped by a heliport and a construction crane." Even so, he was impressed by its performance, with the 11.1" "aluminum girder" Schröder tonearm fitted with Ortofon Anna D, Lyra Etna Lambda SL, and Lyra Atlas Lambda SL phono cartridges. No mat is needed with use of acrylic platter.OMA K3: $363,000 including power supply and Schröder SLM tonearm Replacing the standard platter with an acrylic platter drastically improves sound quality.
Most turntables feature RCA output cables.
RPM / Revolutions Per Minute: Records are recorded to be played at 3 preset speeds: 33 RPM, 45 RPM, and 78 RPM.Audiquest's Geo-Disc is a popular tool for alignment, and Shure's SFG-2 Stylus Force Gauge is popular for measuring weight. When you decide on a cartridge do some research on setting up the cartridge properly in terms of alignment and weight.Because of price and maintenance issues, Moving Coil (MC) should be purchased by advanced users only. Most cartridges are Moving Magnet (MM).The opposite (using a listening cartridge for DJing), however, is not recommended. There are specific cartridges for DJing, however, these cartridges will work fine for listening purposes.Generally, the more expensive the cartridge the better the sound quality, power output, frequency range, and tracking (how the needle rides the record groove).Some cartridges, such as the Ortofon Concorde series, bypass the headshell and plug directly into a tonearm.If you plan to buy a cartridge for your turntable, figure out if you need a headshell-mounted cartridge or a cartridge that directly mounts to your tonearm (turntable arm).If you're buying your first listening turntable setup, go with the tried and true like Shure's M97圎.Most new turntables come with cartridges, but make sure to verify this before purchase.Cartridge Headshells / Alignment / Cleaners
