Product specifications

The fully separated motor section incorporates both power supply and regulation, offering two speeds (33 1/3 and 45 rpm), selectable at the touch of a button, with blue LCD display and absolutely precise speed control. Worldwide flexibility means it can operate on power supplies from 110 V to 240 V. The combination of brushed aluminium and bulletproof plywood provides a truly non-resonant chassis.

Destined to become a new design classic. Innovative vision and timeless beauty: documented in an object for the lover of lifestyle and functionality, also now available in piano black lacquer.
