Description
Overview
The TN-3B-SE is a sleek belt-driven turntable with a built-in MM-type PHONO EQ amplifier. It features a stable tonearm co-developed with SAEC for superior resolution. With its precise belt-drive mechanism and high-quality NJM8080 op-amp, it delivers natural and balanced sound. Easy to set up, it satisfies both audiophiles and record collectors.
Knife-edge, pivot-point tone-arm bearings
In collaboration with the SAEC Corporation, a world-famous, high-end tonearm manufacturer, the TN-3B-SE’s tonearm employs a knife-edge, pivot-point bearing. Unlike with conventional bearings, subtle movements with this tonearm will actually help deliver a more dynamic sound with excellent resolution. The S-shaped tonearm also employs a universal headshell fitting, allowing users to quickly and easily swap cartridges (from 14 – 23g / 0.5 – 0.8 oz.) / headshells.
Precision anti-skating and stylus-pressure adjustment
The static-balanced, S-shape tonearm is equipped with a counterweight for precise stylus-pressure adjustment, as well as an anti-skating mechanism for accurate tracking force adjustment, allowing the cartridge to accurately play vinyl discs.
Pre-installed VM-series cartridge
An audio-technica AT-VM95E cartridge with an elliptically shaped stylus tip comes pre-installed on the headshell for convenience. Ellipitcal styli provide better tracking ability, as well as improved sonic detail and clarity. After you’ve opened the box, set up the platter, mount the headshell on the tonearm and start enjoying your records.
Built-in MM-type phono EQ amplifier
The TN-3B-SE incorporates an MM-type phono EQ amplifier, allowing you to connect the turntable to a conventional amplifier/hi-fi system that lacks a PHONO input. A low distortion, hi-fi-grade op-amp, the NJM8080 is employed to boost the low-level signals from the phono cartridge to LINE level.
External belt-drive with aluminium die-cast platter
A belt-drive arrangement is employed to minimise motor cogging effects by driving the outer rim of the platter (which has a larger diameter, mass and surface area).
Luxurious, multi-layer lacquer paint finish
All internal components are mounted on a robust and high-density MDF plinth for rigidity and deadening of vibration. Thanks to the sleek and stylish design, the TN-3B-SE looks at home in most domestic environments, creating the perfect setting for listening to vinyl records.
33-1/3 and 45 rpm 2-speed turntable
The TN-3B-SE supports both 33-1/3 and 45 rpm for LP and EP records. Our insistence on quality engineering can even be seen in the construction of the rotary control for start-up/speed selection, formed of machined aluminium.
Insulating feet with excellent shock absorption
The insulating feet comprise a machined aluminium shell, topped with a rubber cushion that is fixed to the high-density MDF plinth. Thanks to their excellent shock absorption characteristics, the TN-3B-SE is very resistant to acoustic feedback.
Honeycomb-patterned bottom panel
In order to achieve sleek cabinet design without compromising rigidity, the bottom panel is imprinted with a honeycomb pattern that minimises unwanted vibrations.
