½” phenolic resin platform with .125” aircraft grade aluminum brace, Mdf tonearm well, stainless steel balance points, Matched to the tonearm of choice.
Individually balanced, billet aluminum platter, CNC precision-machined, internally damped with ear material, and topped with an acrylic mat. 14 lbs. of tonally balanced platter. The bushings inside the 360 brass coupling device utilize silicone-impregnated bronze. This special bronze was designed for race car engines and is totally overkill for turntables, which is why we love it so much.
The shaft is made of Stainless Steel and then coated with a very thin layer of Titanium Nitride. Gold in color, the titanium nitride not only improves the Rockwell hardness, but riding against the one-piece bronze bushing ensures longevity and minimal wear vs. older designed Sota turntables. Hand fit for each table. Platter levitates on the force of opposing magnets.
