Extensive research and development have precipitated to the most recent iteration of this truly inspired design – RPM 10 Carbon. It uses a CNC-machined MDF plinth filled with hard-resin-coated steel pellets to further increase mass and heighten the resonance-absorbing/dispersing effect of the ‘sandwich’ construction. Complex heat treatment and a carbon surface coating ensure the low resonance levels you expect from a high-end record player. The mass-loaded chassis is effectively decoupled from its surface via the included Ground it Carbon isolation platform and its magnetic feet. With opposing magnets in the feet of the both the Ground it Carbon as well as the turntable itself, RPM 10 Carbon is all but floating.

Combined with a polished aluminum platter with internal TPE damping and a vinyl top, the inverted ceramic main bearing delivers stable turntable speed with an extra-low rumble. The platter and table are designed around mass – no need for a sub-platter here. The massive outboard belt-drive motor is equipped with precise electronic motor control, featuring a switch for speed change between 33 and 45rpm.  The unparalleled 10cc Evolution tonearm with conical carbon-fiber tonearm and inverted bearing ensures perfect tracking, even with demanding phono cartridges. High-purity copper is used for the internal wiring and the package includes a high-grade, purpose designed 1.23m DIN-RCA phono cable (DIN-XLR available as an add-on).The DC power supply powers the AC motor. With an electrically isolated motor and physically isolated plinth, expect, fantastic speed stability and ultra-quiet backgrounds.
