NAD C 558 Belt Drive Turntable w/ Ortofon OM10 The C 558 is a one-of-a-kind belt drive turntable geared toward vinyl enthusiasts and general audiophiles. There is something truly unique about listening to a vinyl record that you won’t get from a CD or MP3. It offers a warm, layered sound that is both refreshing and nostalgic. The C 588 features two speeds - 33 and 45 RPM - and comes equipped with a protective glass platter and felt pad to protect your collection. Plus, its belt drive reduces crackling and skips in the vinyl, so you only hear the notes and textures of the music itself. Quality Parts and Materials The plinth of the C 558 is solid MDF, as opposed to the particle board or plastic that is commonly found at this value, and is CNC machined for precision. The C 558’s dustcover, too, is heavier than most and made from a non-resonant Perspex with a counter-sprung hinge design that allows the cover to remain in almost any intermediate position from open to closed. An Experience Like No Other Listening to vinyl records is an immersive experience. You become as involved in the process as you do in the listening. To a much greater degree than with digital sources, vinyl playback requires solid mechanical accuracy to extract the music from the medium. A properly played record is a fantastic and rewarding experience, and the NAD C 558 has everything you need to get maximum enjoyment with minimal fuss and expense.
