The result is vinyl playback that feels both expressive and engaging, encouraging attentive listening across entire albums.

Its electronically controlled motor helps maintain steady pitch and timing while playing your records. This allows music to sound more natural and relaxed, making it easier to stay immersed from start to finish. Careful Tonearm Design for Clear Playback A carbon fibre tonearm supports accurate tracking as the stylus moves through the record groove. With the ability to fine-tune alignment, the cartridge can follow the music more precisely, reducing strain and distortion. This helps records sound cleaner and more composed, even during complex passages. Precision Where It Matters Most The C 588 pays close attention to how the platter, bearing, tonearm, and plinth work together during playback. By ensuring these parts interact smoothly, less musical information is lost along the way. The result is vinyl playback that feels cohesive and engaging, allowing subtle details and dynamics to come through naturally. Built to Support Focused Listening A solid MDF plinth, glass platter, carbon fibre tonearm, and carefully chosen materials help reduce the influence of vibration on playback. This stable foundation allows quieter moments to emerge clearly and keeps the presentation well balanced. Combined with the hands-on nature of playing records, the C 588 encourages attentive, uninterrupted listening sessions with your vinyl collection SPECIFICATIONS GENERAL SPECIFICATIONS Nominal speed 33/45 rpm, manual speed change (78 rpm possible with special pulley Speed variance 33 rpm: < ± 0.35 %, 45 rpm: < ± 0.30 % Wow and flutter Show more
