Turntable sheet of advanced made of tungsten compounding butyl rubber

"BR-12" is while inheriting the shape of the aluminum turntable sheet MJ-12, is a turn-table sheet that was made of butyl rubber having an excellent vibration absorption. In the grip of butyl rubber with a high coefficient of friction, it improves the adhesion of the record board, preventing the slip of the phonograph record. Takabari without a phonograph record to slip even in the cartridge regeneration of pressure, you always stable record playback can be obtained.

Equivalent to gold has a high specific gravity (specific gravity 19), incorporated into the butyl rubber tungsten, known as anti-vibration materials alternative to lead. Absorption excellent low resilience among the rubber-based material, and butyl rubber having a vibration-absorbing, by the combined action of the tungsten, the unwanted vibration caused to the turntable. To achieve the turbidity no reproduced sound in the clear.

To correct the warp of the record board, with a conical taper

Has a conical taper of the elevation angle 1.0 ° to the outer periphery from the center, that is brought into close contact the record board to taper, straightening the warp of the phonograph record. The operation of the record needle is stabilized, trace of sound groove will dramatically increase. Taper is provided with a total of 18 tuning hole, eliminating the habit of tend to rubber-based material will be dead. Without impairing the sense of movement, it reduces the only incidental sound surrounding unwanted vibration.

Tuning Hall also functions as a finger rest groove to smoothly perform removal 10-inch panel and EP board. By providing the outer edge to the round taper for the finger rest of the "BR-12", smoothly you can the removal of the "BR-12" from the record player. An outer diameter that was 294mm, it can LP board the removal of the (diameter 300mm) smoothly.

The same 5mm thick and the thing and accessories turntable mat of many record player, without performing the adjustment of the height of the tone arm, can be replaced with the accessories.

Stroboscope & overhang gauge to help the adjustment of the record player is included.

To "BR-12" is, to help the adjustment of the record player, and comes with a stroboscope and overhang gauge made of PP coated paper.

In BR-12 use

• When the dirt is washed with water, please wipe off the moisture with a soft cloth.
• Because there is a possibility of changing the nature of the rubber, oil, organic solvents, do not wipe with alcohol.
• In order to contact the record board the tapered surface, we recommend the combination of more records stabilizer mass 300g.
• The proper value of the overhang gauge, your record player, please refer to the instruction manual of the tone arm.
• To use the stroboscope, LED light bulb (AC 50Hz / 60Hz), fluorescent light (type not the inverter type), please prepare a strobe light emitter separately.
