"The Nova utilizes the same beloved suspension system used throughout the Heritage Series. Unique to the Nova VII is the inclusion of a 1” milled aluminum brace, Stainless counterweights, and Acrylic tonearm well on the sub-chassis.

This more robust design leads to a sub-chassis that is heavier and stiffer than the previous sub-chassis and yields a sound with more life and clarity than ever before. The counterbalance weights are now 303 Stainless steel that couple to knurled brass nuts that show below the sub-chassis. This new counterbalancing improves tonal response and maintains the Sota sound that we have been known for.

Despite all the innovations, to keep with SOTA’s history of making quiet, reliable, American-made vacuum and standard turntables, the new Nova VII is available with or without the option of our legendary vacuum hold-down system."
