T1 EVO Phono – including built-in switchable phono preamp The T1 EVO Phono aims to deliver true high-fidelity sound on a limited budget. Boasting premium materials, stylish aesthetics and a rich, lively sound, the extensive development process has ensured that there has been no compromise in the sound performance when achieving such an affordable price. The stylish CNC-machined plinth, available in High Gloss Black, Satin White or Walnut finish, features no plastic parts and is carefully manufactured to ensure there are no hollow spaces inside, therefore avoiding unwanted vibrations within the chassis. Carrying this philosophy through the design, the glass platter is also a heavy, zero-resonance design – again avoiding the flaws of plastic or lightweight steel alternatives. Finally, the purpose-chosen turntable feet also do a good job of isolating the T1 EVO from ambient vibrations around your hi-fi system. Audiophile Design In the T1 EVO Phono, the motor drives a belt, attached to a new bigger sub-platter, which is mounted into an ultra-precise 0.001mm main bearing with a hardened steel axle and brass bushing. With its straight, 8.6” effective length and stiff aluminium construction, the one-piece tonearm also features low-friction bearings for absolute accuracy in use. Supplied with an Ortofon OM 10 Moving Magnet cartridge, featuring an elliptical diamond stylus tip; this is a true hi-fi playback system with no corners cut.
