The model has received new internal wiring, a titanium tube and an improved fulcrum design – together with the proprietary Magneglide magnetic stabilization system, the single-support structure has reached a new level of convenience and stability.
The E.A.T C-Note is a high-end 10-inch vinyl turntable tonearm made from a combination of carbon fiber and aluminum to minimize resonances; it uses a hybrid bearing system for high tracking accuracy and supports a wide range of cartridges thanks to adjustable clamping and antiskating parameters.
The tonearm has a proprietary Magneglide system that provides magnetic stabilization (based on neodymium magnets). Moreover, in addition to stability, this system also provides an anti-skating function. Interestingly, the tonearm tube is easy to detach, so users can have multiple tubes with cartridges already pre-installed, which makes it easy and quick to replace the heads if necessary.
The tonearm has a gimbal design with four point bearings characterized by an ultra-low coefficient of friction.
