Massive concrete – smooth sound
The new EAT C-Dur Concrete features an elaborately handcrafted heavy weight concrete plinth. The stunning finish makes the turntable an absolute eye-catcher in every living room and delivers an audiophile sound quality. Our idea was to bring the concept of the EAT Forte in a more compact format. The result is a similar smooth movement without any rumble, which ensures smooth sound.
Bearing Construction
The heavyweight 5,2 kg aluminium platter sits on a full aluminium 900 g resonance-free sub platter. The massive inverted main bearing guarantees a silent playback with accurate speeds. The mass loaded 1,8 kg bearing block uses a polished stainless-steel spindle with a ceramic ball on the top. A ceramic ball is used on the top because it is very hard and inert. This, in combination with a Teflon plate as a bearing mirror, is also a good damping device. Teflon s accurate satin surface produces perfectly smooth movement without any rumble
Tonearm
The 10 carbon EAT C-Note tonearm is not only an optical statement, it s a well though-out precision instrument. It combines all advantages of an unipivot arm with a cardan design. The uni-pivot in the middle only helps bearing to be less loaded. The traditional Cardan bearing insures high stability and easiness of use with very low friction. Also, inside the tonearm is a special silicon-based rease to damp the tonearm / cartridge resonances y more than 50%. The carbon tube offers the required stiffness, while the aluminium headshell convinces with its damping of resonances – a perfect match! A semi-balanced 5P DIN to RCA cable is included in the delivery. Simply upgrade to a balanced phono cable and benefit from a fully balanced signal transmission.
Motor
The ultra low noise motor of the new EAT C Dur Concrete is isolated and placed into a steel ring which is then mounted in the chassis. An external DC pow- er supply unit with an AC generator creates a total clean power for the motor. A special anti-static polished rubber belt connects the motor with the alu- minium sub platter. Easily change speeds with the electronic speed control on the top plate. Place a record on the platter and set the correct speed with a push of a button.
Feet
The EAT C Dur Concrete is effectively decoupled from its surface by its feet. The three height adjustable damped aluminium feet guarantee the perfect stand & massively reduce risk of acoustical feedback. The feet are able to absorb energy with its TPE (Termoplastic Elastomers) insert.
