Key specs that matter

Three speeds are supported - 33, 45, and 78rpm - via direct-drive with an AC motor, a comprehensive speed range accommodating vintage 78rpm shellac discs alongside standard vinyl. Wow and flutter is an exceptionally low under 0.05% - an outstanding figure reflecting the direct-drive mechanism's inherent speed stability advantages. The auto-clamping mechanism referenced in the model name provides convenient automatic record securing. At 574 x 413 x 260mm and 55kg, the Magnezar Turntable's considerable weight reflects serious internal chassis and platter engineering.
