Dayton Audio TT-1BTW Belt Driven Turntable
The Dayton Audio TT-1 Belt Drive Turntable is a versatile and high-quality turntable that combines modern technology and delivers a classic vinyl listening experience. With its built-in USB and Bluetooth connectivity, you can easily connect it to your computer or speakers and enjoy your vinyl records in exceptional audio quality. The upgraded Audio Technica AT-VM95E Cartridge ensures outstanding playback performance, delivering clear and detailed sound. Whether you're a vinyl enthusiast or a beginner, this turntable offers convenience and superior sound reproduction, making it a fantastic choice for any music lover.
Removable Headshell with Upgraded Audio-Technica AT-VM95E Cartridge
The pre-installed Audio-Technica AT-VM95E cartridge features a bonded round shank stylus tip that precisely tracks the contours of each record groove. Its specially designed-cantilever and armature effectively dampen unwanted resonances for a pure, transparent sound. The cartridge is attached to a standard headshell and can be easily installed or removed for upgrade or replacement. Its high-performance design delivers expansive soundstages, accurate timbres, and tight bass response to do justice to any genre in your collection.
Innovative Belt Drive System
The TT1's belt-driven mechanism eliminates any possibility of vibration transfer from the motor that can degrade sound quality. The belt smoothly and silently rotates the die-cast aluminum platter at a constant 33 1/3 or 45 RPM for accurate playback of all your records. An electronic sensor constantly monitors and adjusts motor speed to prevent fluctuations that could negatively impact sound. With the TT1's innovative belt drive system, you can lose yourself in the rich textures, tones, and layers of your favorite records as the artists intended.
Aircraft-grade Aluminum Tonearm
The straight aluminum tonearm is constructed of a single piece of aircraft-grade aluminum for maximum rigidity. Its lightweight design combined with low friction bearings allows the tone arm to track even the subtlest grooves in a record with ease. The tonearm pivot and bearing assembly are precision machined to tight tolerances, keeping wow and flutter to an absolute minimum. This ensures that each instrument and vocal comes through clearly, preserving all the nuances intended by the artist in the recording studio.
Convenient Speed Selection and Start/Stop Knobs.
The TT-1 turntable features a convenient knob on the plinth to select between 33 1/3 RPM and 45 RPM playback speeds. This allows users to enjoy their entire record collection, from classic rock and jazz albums meant for 33 1/3 RPM playback all the way to modern pop and rock singles designed for 45 RPM. The computer-controlled belt-drive motor ensures accurate rotational speed at both 33 1/3 and 45 RPM to maintain optimal audio quality and avoid unwanted changes in pitch that could distort the music.
Premium Aluminum Platter
Stability meets performance. With minimized wow and flutter, the TT-1 promises an audio experience that's nothing short of perfection. The TT-1 aluminum platter features a precision-machined surface for true tracking at all speeds. Together with the TT-1's low-resonance tonearm, the aluminum platter hits the mark in tonal accuracy and dynamic expression across all genres of music.
Tonearm Adjustability
With Anti-Skate, Anti-Tracking, and Weight Adjustments, you can achieve balanced and accurate sound reproduction tailored to your preference of cartridge. Anti-skate counteracts the inward pull of the record grooves on the stylus to maintain constant tracking force throughout each revolution. Anti-tracking compensates for tendencies of the tonearm to push inward or pull outward from radial tracking due to mechanical variations. Weighing the tonearm precisely establishes the optimum downward force for balanced playback without undue tracking pressure that could damage records or styli. Together, fine-tuning these parameters through a process of careful listening tests personalizes the sound by compensating for individual system and listener variables.
High-quality RCA Outputs
The TT-1 features high-quality RCA outputs that allow connection to any standard phono input on a stereo receiver, integrated amp, or other audio equipment. This provides seamless integration between the turntable and your existing audio system for rich analog sound. Housed within the TT-1 is a low-noise, high-fidelity phono pre-amplifier that boosts and conditions the phono-level signal from the cartridge to line level for receivers without a phono stage.
Bluetooth Connectivity
In addition to traditional wired playback, the TT-1 includes modern Bluetooth connectivity for wireless streaming. Simply pair the turntable to a Bluetooth receiver, headphones, or bluetooth speaker to listen from anywhere in the room! This allows the warmth of records to be enjoyed in a convenient, versatile manner while maintaining the authentic analog playback that vinyl enthusiasts love.
Removable Dust Cover
Keep your turntable pristine. Shield it from dust and particles that can compromise sound quality. A built-in dust cover blocks airborne particles and dust that could otherwise settle on the turntable platter or tonearm. Regular accumulation of dust and debris can degrade audio performance over time by adding friction and resistance. The cover is easily lifted out of the way for play sessions and folds back down to protect the turntable when not spinning records. Proper use of the dust cover helps maintain optimal sound quality and extend the functional life of your turntable.
Specially Engineered Isolation Feet
The TT1 turntable utilizes four specially engineered isolation feet to decouple the turntable from external vibrations and resonance. At their point of contact with the turntable sub-chassis or support surface, the feet of the TT1 prevent low-frequency rumble and structural vibrations from degrading the audio signal or muddying the sonic presentation. Above the isolation feet, a heavy MDF plinth further insulates the turntable from airborne vibrations. Whether enjoying vinyl or digital high-resolution files, the TT1's vibration control allows you to relax in the knowledge that only the recording itself is being heard.
