Externally very similar to the earlier 160 series with classic wooden frame
Two-part platter with internal belt and thick rubber mat, tonearm base, and acrylic dust cover
The springs are now mounted on the base plate, with the subchassis resting on them rather than being suspended as in the past
A tensioned steel thread (on the axis motor pulley/platter spindle) prevents the sub-chassis from wobbling, even at start-up when the torque is highest, allowing only vertical movement – and without disturb the tonearm and stylus while they track the music in the record groove
The complex motor control system ensures a constant speed with exact synchronisation
Internal flat belt drive

Top turntable made of triCom
Fully electronically controlled and stabilised AC synchronous motor
