DESCRIPTION:
Kenwood KD-3070 Direct Drive Turntable
Kenwood's KD-3070 semi-automatic turntable hits squarely at the main obstacles to perfect record reproduction.
It incorporates a major advancement in direct drive technology. The 20 pole, 30 slot servo controlled DC motor with high torque for rotational stability, coupled with high inertia produced by a heavier platter, increase performance to bring the level of wow and flutter down to 0.035% wrms, and holding rumble to -70dB.
The new redesigned tonearm is a further achievement in quality sound reproduction. It obtains low tracking error and low resonance by reducing the effects of unbalanced rotational forces to the minimum.
Low resonance is also a feature of the carefully constructed cabinetry and the semi-automatic function provides convenience of use while maintaining maximum quality performance.
