Opera Droplet LP 5.0 Turntable without Tonearm and Cartridge
Price for turntable without tonearm, cartridge, pedestal and gauge.
Droplet LP 5.0 is not simply a turntable, rather it is a 'system' consisting of turntable and stand, it is constructed from two slabs of polished pale marble separated by massive, triangular section, anodized-alloy columns - all tensioned by threaded rods running through the structure. The shape of the marble echo's the curves of the turntable, with the columns directly beneath the cones on the base of the turntable.
We have done is kept the design relatively simple and followed well established 'best practice' - it is a conservative design. In essence it is a solid plinth design carrying a massive, tool-steel, inverted-bearing sleeve/shaft with a ceramic ball as the actual load bearing structure.
