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. 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.
