Know before you buy
Yes, the turntable arrives with an Ortofon 2M Blue cartridge pre-installed. You will still need to perform basic setup tasks, such as balancing the tonearm and setting the tracking force, before you can start listening.
The floating chassis, combined with the TPE suspension system, decouples the platter and tonearm from the motor and base. This isolation significantly reduces vibrations and external noise, resulting in a cleaner, more detailed playback.
Yes, the B-Note tonearm is highly adjustable, allowing you to fine-tune VTA, SRA, VTF, and azimuth to accommodate a wide range of aftermarket cartridges. Its carbon fiber and aluminum construction provides the rigidity needed to get the best performance out of various high-quality pickups.
TPE (Thermoplastic Elastomer) is used to dampen unwanted resonance throughout the turntable. By absorbing micro-vibrations, it ensures the stylus tracks the record groove more accurately, which improves overall sonic clarity.
The B-Sharp features an intuitive anti-skate design that is much simpler to calibrate than traditional systems. It is designed to be user-friendly, allowing you to achieve proper tracking force and balance without needing specialized tools.
Yes, the B-Sharp is equipped with adjustable feet. These allow you to precisely level the high-density MDF base on any surface, which is essential for maintaining proper tonearm tracking and platter stability.
