Engineered with precise stylus tracking on a perfectly isolated platform for high-fidelity audio so you can hear every groove’s finest detail with stunning accuracy
High-Mass Dual Plinth
Its dual-plinth architecture, with the motor on the lower plinth and the tonearm on the upper, separated by decoupling isolators, minimizes vibrations to ensure the stylus delivers maximum precision
Carbon Fiber Tonearm
The RT87’s ultra-lightweight tonearm reduces resonance and offers VTA adjustment for precise cartridge calibration and consistent tracking
Microline Stylus
Experience high-resolution sound with the AT-VM95ML cartridge, offering improved linearity, superior channel separation, and low distortion
Acrylic Platter
Enjoy consistent RPM with the RT87's 22mm acrylic platter which maintains inertia, electronic speed control for accurate playback, and auto-stop to prevent stylus wear
The RT87 turntable achieves exceptional musical accuracy through its advanced dual plinth design, which suppresses mechanical vibrations reaching the tonearm and the record surface. It employs high-mass MDF with conical isolators to dampen vibrations, ensuring a pure and precise audio experience.
Studio Quality
The RT87’s design utilizes a high-mass MDF dual plinth for superior vibration dampening. The motor is mounted to the lower plinth, isolated by the silicone rubber supports further reducing vibrations to the tonearm.
Dual Plinth Architecture
The RT87’s lightweight tonearm reduces resonance and improves groove tracking. It features VTA adjustment for optimal cartridge calibration. Anti-skate by weight ensures consistent tracking force, and CNC-machined components provide accurate sound reproduction. Direct RCA soldering eliminates extraneous electronics, while the removable headshell allows cartridge upgradability.
Carbon Fiber Tonearm
The AT-VM95ML stylus offers a unique microlinear shape that distributes contact pressure more uniformly for precise groove tracing, reducing distortion and enhancing detail, while providing excellent channel separation.
Microline Stylus
The acrylic material damps unwanted vibrations resulting in a more 3-dimensional sound with tighter bass, a fuller midrange, and overall improved clarity. The heavy 4.1 lb (1.85 kg) platter maintains inertia for stable rotation, reducing wow and flutter. The auto-stop function preserves stylus life, and the round belt’s minimal contact design reduces vibration for quieter operation. The servo motor with electronic speed control ensures precise 33 1/3, 45 and 78 RPM playback.
