ANALOG PLAYERS

PD-171A

Allow the musical character within the groove to truly breathe

PD-171 has been a highly regarded analogue player in the market due to its ability to convey the sense of musical depth and feeling of vinyl records. There are two new revisions, an armless type, the PD-171AL, and the PD-171A, with a universal tone arm, adjustable to the users requirements and systems. At the heart of these models is a newly developed, high output power supply circuit and an AC synchronous motor. We have incorporated ideas developed for our audio amplifiers and have adopted a belt drive system which rotates a high inertia, heavyweight turntable. A high quality hairline finished aluminum upper surface blends beautifully with the wooden base cabinet to conceal the robust and accurate machinery within, developing a warmer and softer personality with whom the listener may spend many hours of enjoyment, expressing the true personality of analogue recordings.

High torque belt drive motor

The motor is the fundamental energy source used to release the musical content of vinyl records. The PD-171A and PD-171AL are equipped with a newly developed, high-torque AC synchronous motor. We have eliminated unnecessary vibration and achieved optimum energy transmission by using a wide drive belt. We have eliminated unnecessary vibration and achieved optimum energy transmission by using a wide drive belt. The motor drive system is equipped to deliver ample output power, incorporating ideas from Luxman's unique audio amplifier knowledge. The combination of the latest 32-bit microcomputer control and a high precision clock generator deliver accurate and quiet rotation.

Turntable and spindle

The turntables for these models are cut from solid aluminum plates, finished with a diamond cutter and weight-adjusted to 5kg. A huge inertia of about 0.7tonnes-per-cm2 promises smooth and stable rotation. The stainless steel center spindle, with bearings fitted at the base, is extremely rigid at 16mm in diameter. A brass thrust bearing, with a polyetheretherketone (PEEK) ball race lubricated with molybdenum oil, offers excellent abrasion resistance and load carrying ability, firmly supporting the heavyweight platter.

Universal type tone arm

PD-171A is equipped with a high sensitivity static balance type tone arm with a one point cross suspension bearing structure as standard. It functions well with various types of cartridges. Moreover, by adopting a universal type head shell, we have made it a very simple operation to change the cartridge. Both of the PD-171A and PD-171AL, having the base plate of the tone arm as an interchangeable, independent part and depending on options sold separately, offer attachment to numerous tone arms such as SME, SAEC, FR and Ortofon to enable users enjoy the characteristics of their favorite tone arm.
※cartridge is not included.

Under-slung system

All major parts are attached to a 15mm thick aluminum plate which connects to the main chassis by our original under-slung (hanging) method, successfully achieving both high rigidity and vibration damping. The motor and the power supply transformer, which can cause vibration, are attached using floating mounts to achieve a higher signal to noise ratio. Four large caliber spring-and-rubber insulator feet directly connected to the chassis prevent feedback and external vibration transmission. In addition, the hybrid vibration damping structure of the metal chassis and wooden exterior contributes to a high level of sound quality.

Supporting comfortable analogue record playback

The LED illuminated reflective stroboscope enables precise, fine rotation speed adjustment to 331/3 and 45 RPM independently. The unique stroboscope pattern displayed in the window is not the usual dot or block pattern, but the rotational speed itself! A joy to operate. We have equipped these models with detachable, high-intensity LED-type stylus lights that illuminate the playing area of vinyl records. The 4mm thick acrylic dust cover uses cam support hinges to achieve a light and smooth opening and closing motion. The PD-171A is equipped with a universal tone arm and supplied with a light weight and highly rigid magnesium alloy head shell and a ground-equipped 5-pin DIN→RCA cable made from OFC copper.

KISEKI BLUE N.S.

Kiseki Blue N.S. is the first "new style" Kiseki cartridge ever. The typical, but shorter, Kiseki body is machined out of solid aluminium, the motor is built from the best available parts today. Two years of experimenting, testing all possible choices of materials and techniques to result in a better new Kiseki Blue. A Kiseki Blue which surpasses the results of the original Kiseki Blue from the 80's ánd of the more recent Kiseki Blue N.O.S. Only then we felt we had a reason to produce this Kiseki Blue N.S.

Nasotec Swing Headshell 203A1

Sorry, this product is temporarily out of stock.

• Description

As with most conventional tonearm & headshell combinations, the best we can hope for is to perfectly align the null points according to the alignment gauge we are using.  So at this point our cartridge is tracking perfectly with the grooves but the rest of the record playing area is basically a compromise getting close as possible. The Nasotec Swing Headshell correct this problem by gently moving with the grooves, creating perfect alignment.

The Nasotec Swing Headshell 203A1 is constantly correcting errors during the record is playing. Now responding to the off-centered groove. Only the Nasotec Swing headshell can do this.

Integrity HiFi Tru-Lift Model #2

The Integrity HiFi Tru-Lift Model #2 has an adjustable height from 1 5/8" to 2". Designed and built in Canada by Integrity HiFi, the Tru- Lift is hands-down the world's best automatic tonearm lifter. All models are made of solid stainless steel.

What does it do?

Simply put, it lifts. A the end of a record, the Tru-Lift automatically and gently lifts the tonearm up, preserving your treasured (and probably very expensive) cartridge. No longer must you worry about falling asleep or forgetting about your spinning record, leaving the needle continually skipping and damaging your speakers.

And the Tru-Lift is durable too. Made of solid stainless steel or brass, this tonearm lifter is backed up by a lifetime warrenty (some restrictions apply).
