- A transparent vinyl backing.
- Aluminium tonearm fitted with an Ortofon OM10 cartridge with elliptical diamond for high-precision playback.
- Internal belt-driven disc support
- Tripod anti-vibration system by La Boite concept
- Plug & play installation: no adjustments or counterweights to set
TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS
This new edition of the SQUARE CC turntable is a belt-drive model equipped with an aluminum tonearm fitted with an ORTOFON OM10 cartridge. Its high-quality components allow this turntable to offer both an aesthetically pleasing and high-fidelity solution for discovering or rediscovering the world of vinyl records and listening to 33 and 45 RPM records.
FASHIONS
The SQUARE CC turntable features two modes: pre-amplified and unamplified. A connector on the back of the turntable allows for easy switching between these two outputs. The integrated PHONO MM pre-amplifier boosts the vinyl output by 34dB, enabling direct connection of the turntable to your hi-fi system, amplifier, or powered speakers.
ARM
The 20cm long aluminum tonearm (lightweight and rigid) incorporates a headshell. Its one-piece, conical design eliminates reflections and standing waves. The tonearm features ultra-low friction bearings to ensure high tracking accuracy. The tonearm's counterweight is specifically pre-set for the SQUARE turntable's high-end ORTOFON OM10 cartridge, eliminating the need for any additional setup or adjustments.
This high-end cartridge features an elliptical diamond stylus to ensure perfect tracking of vinyl record grooves. It offers a frequency response between 20 Hz and 25 kHz.
VINYL SUPPORT
The transparent Plexiglas® vinyl support reveals the rotation mechanism: a sub-platter mounted in a 0.001 mm main bearing with a hardened steel shaft and a brass bushing to prevent any vibration or play in the bearings. The sub-platter is rotated by a low-vibration belt drive system. The SQUARE turntable is powered by a synchronous motor directly connected to the mains to ensure maximum stability and quiet operation.
ANTI-VIBRATION SYSTEM
Furthermore, the SQUARE CC turntable incorporates a tripod-style anti-vibration system developed by La Boite concept to prevent unwanted vibrations that could interfere with vinyl playback. Thanks to its cork pads, the turntable rests on three points, directing vibrations to the rear. This solution absorbs vibrations, transmitting only those of the vinyl groove. This technology neutralizes unwanted bass vibrations from a speaker, allowing you to use both a speaker and the SQUARE CC turntable on the same surface.
SPEEDS
Two speeds are possible: 33 and 45 RPM. Thanks to a simple button on the SQUARE CC platter, the speed change is made manually and allows you to easily switch between these two speeds.
