The McIntosh MT10 turntable complete with tonearm and MC cartridge utilises an electronically regulated magnetic air bearing to isolate the playback surface from mechanical vibration in dedicated two-channel stereo systems. Fitted with a high-mass, magnetically suspended silicon acrylic platter, this precision deck maintains rotational stability across 33-1/3, 45, and 78 RPM records. The rigid assembly minimises mechanical drag, protecting groove micro-detail from motor-induced resonance.The Hi-Fi Centre Team TakeLiving with the MT10 centres around its rotational momentum and silent background operation, which prove crucial during low-level listening sessions. The dural-aluminium tonearm and factory-aligned ebony moving-coil cartridge track complex passages cleanly, resolving spatial cues without high-frequency hardness. Its illuminated acrylic platter and front-panel meter offer instantaneous rotational speed monitoring while anchoring the deck visually. The result is a composed, fatigue-free analogue source built to extract genuine dynamic nuance from expansive vinyl collections.Key Acoustic & Design Features Magnetic Air Bearing: Floats the thick silicon acrylic platter on a magnetic cushion to decouple mechanical contact and eliminate motor rumble. Dural-Aluminium Tonearm: Incorporates low-friction sapphire horizontal and ceramic vertical gimbal bearings for precise stylus tracking and minimal geometric error. Ebony Moving-Coil Cartridge: Combines an elliptical diamond stylus with a dense wood body to retrieve subtle harmonic details across an extended frequency spectrum.
