Clear Acrylic Platter, Marble-Textured Base

Both named Everything Audio Network’s “Product of the Year” in 2016, the TEAC TN-550 and TN-570 belt-drive turntables offer style, performance, and the analog sound audiophiles know and love. The dual-material chassis combines artificial marble and high-density MDF to ensure a high feedback margin and crystal-clear sound. Made of clear acrylic resin, the full-size platter shines beautifully and suppresses unwanted sympathetic vibrations. And for high-precision rotation in this sleek cabinet design, the power train uses a cogging-free belt drive with a Platter Rotation Sensing Servo System (or PRS3). The TN-570 model adds a built-in phono preamp and analog-to-digital converter, allowing you to easily convert your archive to 48kHz/16-bit digital audio to your PC via USB.

Note: At checkout, choose the TN-550 model (base price) or the TN-570 model (+ $200). This drop is limited to 134 units.
