TN-420-TD is achieved through a modern hydro-graphics printing process and adds
a groovy touch to any music room. And just below this colorful is a high
density MDF cabinet designed to minimize unwanted resonance during playback.
Aluminum belt-drive turntable
The high inertia aluminum die-cast
platter is driven by a high-torque DC motor with durable Neoprene® rubber belt
to achieve stable rotation. In addtition, highly accurate rotation of this
