Turntables — Audio Note TT-Two Deluxe

The TT-Two Deluxe is a belt-drive turntable from Audio Note UK, a British manufacturer known for uncompromising, purist audio engineering, built with an acrylic platter and AC motor. The TT-Two Deluxe brings Audio Note's considered engineering to a well-regarded analogue playback format.

Key specs that matter

Two speeds are supported - 33 and 45rpm - via belt drive using an AC motor, providing genuine isolation between motor and platter. The acrylic platter is chosen for favourable resonance-damping characteristics. At 170 x 470 x 360mm, the TT-Two Deluxe maintains a manageable footprint consistent with Audio Note's considered engineering standards.

Sound and use context

Expect smooth, well-controlled rotation reflecting the belt-drive mechanism's inherent motor isolation, combined with the acrylic platter's characteristic resonance-damping properties, consistent with Audio Note's broader purist engineering philosophy.

Pairing

Buyers should confirm tonearm and cartridge compatibility directly with Audio Note or an authorised dealer to complete this turntable's analogue front end, and Audio Note's own cartridge catalogue offers natural companion components.

Alternatives

Audio Note's broader turntable catalogue offers alternatives at different scales for buyers wanting either a more accessible or more elaborate expression of the brand's purist engineering philosophy.
