Denon original static balance S-Shape tonearm
Features a carefully engineered S-Shape curved
tonearm with optimized tracking angle at any point of
the record. This newly improved Denon® arm features
cartridge weight adjustment, anti-skating adjustment
(0-3 g), and a newly developed arm height adjustment
(0-9 mm). It gives you full flexibility to customize your
turntable to your preferred cartridges or custom mat.
Direct-Drive motor system
Follows a long Denon tradition of Direct-Drive motor
system, with rotation speed that does not fluctuate no
matter the selected speed or load. Simple to use, low
maintenance, and reaches full speed almost instantly.
Denon released its first Direct-Drive turntable, the DN-
302F, for broadcast studios in 1970.
Space vector PWM motor control
Space vector pulse with modulation (SV-PWM) is a
new design for the motor spinning control. SV-PWM is
simply an algorithm used to control the PWM (pulse with
modulation) module, which basically powers the motor.
SV-PWM greatly reduces harmonics in the motor which
can cause overheating and torque fluctuations and offers
a continuous reliable voltage and frequency output for
long periods of listening at any rotation speed or load via
continuous feedback of the rotation speed.
Adjustable insulator feet
The feet are key to protect the playback from any vibration
picked up from the surface the turntable is placed on. But
these feet are also adjustable to bring the platter perfectly
in balance for the most accurate tracking of the needle in
the groove.
SMPS power supply
Switch mode power supply (SMPS) greatly benefits
turntables by avoiding the use of a linear transformer,
avoiding unnecessary vibrations. It allows integration of
the power supply into the turntable, getting rid of any
external power transformer or power bricks dangling
behind the product. It also avoids voltage and frequency
fluctuations from variation in the power grid.
