Reference Turntable

The current hand-built Reference turntable employs a low-speed, AC motor driving the platter via a neoprene belt, thereby providing complete vibration insulation. The main bearing is manufactured from high-grade aluminium with two pressed fit P.T.F.E bushes at either end of the housing ensuring minimum contact with the bearing spindle, which it self comprises of a silver steel shaft and aluminium hub running on to a stainless steel ball bearing. The turntable is future-proof and comes with a ten year guarantee.
