RPM 1 Carbon implements a radical concept that does not compromise sound quality at an entry-level price. It utilizes multiple innovations and enhancements. A low resonance chassis holds a newly designed inverted platter bearing with ceramic ball for further reduced rumble. An outboard 15V AC motor is smoothly driven using an ultra-precise AC generator with DC power supply for further enhanced speed stability. An industry-leading S-shaped tonearm tube is made from carbon fiber, aluminum, and resin. Using a complex 3-step process with heat treatment and 100bar pressure, armtube rigidity is strengthened, internal damping is maximized, and resonances are reduced to a minimum. This makes the tonearm also suitable for MC cartridges. Additional features are a new magnetic anti-skating mechanism and a TPE-damped counterweight. All ingredients add up to a miracle in sound for the price and an ultra-stylish aesthetic!
