Reloop's Turn X is a quartz-driven, high-end turntable that impresses in more ways than just its sound and premium aesthetics. Designed with precision from the outset The Turn X's direct-drive DC motor offers incredibly accurate and consistent speeds. The high torque ensures lightning-fast start-up times and minimal variances of just +/-0.03%. The Turn X excels when operated in full manual mode, where its electronic brake and rotary switch for smooth starting and stopping, which also doubles as a speed selector (33, 45 and 78 RPM), shine. A solid aluminium block supports the record player's precision-machined die-cast platter. Its hefty 2.1 kg, 332 mm diameter and 22.5 mm thickness ensure smooth, even movement. The damping rubber coating on the back of the turntable and the rubber mat provide excellent isolation properties and minimise vibrations. The statically balanced S-shaped tonearm can be adjusted in height to change the cartridge's azimuth (the angle at which the needle approaches the record) and the record's vertical tracking angle (VTA). The tonearm design guarantees free and fluid movement and optimum cartridge performance. The Turn X has a high-quality Ortofon 2M Blue cartridge pre-installed, ensuring excellent dynamics and sound resolution to satisfy even the most discerning audiophiles. Another highlight: The universal SME connector enables a quick and easy cartridge system change if required. In addition to meeting the exacting demands of vinyl enthusiasts, the Reloop Turn X is a true visual showpiece. The record player's sleek design, sophisticated one-button control, and classy piano lacquer finish make it a real eye-catcher. The turntable's solid MDF chassis is exceptionally sturdy and robust, keeping unwanted resonances at bay from the outset. As a bonus, the Turn X is effectively decoupled thanks to the height-adjustable isolator feet. Last but not least, the Turn X features a gold-plated high-resolution phono output and a gold-plated ground connector for optimum signal transfer and corrosion resistance. Interference is reduced even further by the power switch's ultra-low noise insulation.
