Stabi M

This is a modern turntable designed in a classic turntable style with the emphasis on  providing the best possible record playback.

The turntable’s size allows even  12 inch tonearms to be mounted and covered  with its massive acrylic  dust cover on spring hinges . The dust cover is  constructed  not to pick up any vibration from loud  music.

The turntable is  assembled  from various solid parts of aluminium making the  construction rigid and  absorbing  vibration. On the outer sides of the main structure are solid aluminium plates, which  give the turntable mass and further increase structural rigidity and damping. 

The covered spikes within the legs allow horizontal levelling of the whole turntable.

The top  aluminium plate  under the platter, has an  elastically under hung  main frame and motor system below  which   is  insulated from the outer main  turntable’s structure via four big elastic dampers,  allowing for fine horizontal levelling of the platter and tonearm.

The platter is  constructed from two  pieces of  30mm thick aluminium  with an  acrylic damping plate sandwiched between  making a  very inert support for records.

The bearing has an inverted shaft with a ruby ball which gives precise, low noise rotation to a  supporting subplatter.

The main frame carrying the  main bearing and massive aluminium armboard,  is bolted together from solid aluminium blocks forming a unique damped rigid support.

The motor system:  The DC motor itself is specially mounted inside a brass  cup and aluminium plate. This  motor assembly  is  encapsulated and  suspended  inside a massive brass motor housing.  Thus the main frame is doubly insulated from the motor system  and yet still  maintains  rigidity,  allowing for max torque momentum to be transmitted via the stiff plastic belt to the subplatter. This gives the platter a high torque drive  with the positive properties of belt and idler drives, while minimising the negatives one.

The external power supply controls the  DC motor with precise frequency and it has very fine speed adjustments. The control panel on the front plate of the turntable has  start/stop and speed change functions. The full speed of platter on 33 rpm is reached in just  2 seconds- in one full rotation of the platter.  There is also a remote control start/stop function.
