That's because MMF-5.3 also comes with a pre-mounted, 9-inch carbon tonearm complete with flexible internal wire as well as a separately isolated DC synchronous motor. In other words, MMF-5.3 takes care of all the important details for you with high-grade components that concentrate on audiophile-quality music reproduction. Two-Platform Design Provides Superb Isolation and Damping, Many Extras Also
Included
A dual-plinth design, MMF-5.3 is built with its platter, main bearing, tonearm, and cartridge located on the top platform and cleverly isolated from the motor, switch, wiring, and feet – all mounted on the bottom platform. Viso-elastic cones separate the two platforms and supply additional damping from harmful vibrations. A stainless-steel main bearing sheathed in Teflon, dynamically balanced alloy platter with a soft-felt mat, record clamp, adjustable vibration-damping feet, built-in spirit level, dust cover, and 45RPM adaptor further enhance the stunning performance and incredible versatility afforded by MMF-5.3. A gorgeous, high-gloss lacquer finish is the proverbial icing on the cake. What matters most, however, is the sound. And you'll love what you hear.
