{"product_id":"pure-fidelity-symphony-turntable","title":"Pure Fidelity Symphony Turntable","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe Symphony turntable immerses you in an emotional musical experience achievable only with the highest level of analog playback. Central to its performance is the extraordinary harmony of Pure Fidelity’s “hybrid” design. It provides a rich midrange, making instruments and vocals feel real and palpable. Boasting an exceptionally low noise floor, music emerges from an inky black background with detailed highs and excellent bass resolution. In line with a component of such distinction, the deck incorporates our most advanced strategies against shelf-borne vibration and resonance. The result is a musical instrument of rare distinction.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-9b39114 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"9b39114\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"elementor-widget-container\"\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\"\u003ePure Fidelity “hybrid” design\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-c3ddc8a elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"c3ddc8a\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"elementor-widget-container\"\u003eUnderstanding that the plinth has a profound impact on turntable acoustics, various designs have their strengths and weaknesses. High-mass constructions deliver deep bass but can feel dull. Low-mass designs excel in agility and dynamics but often sound too bright. Suspended decks offer excellent timing but may lack depth in bass. To capture the best attributes of each, Pure Fidelity’s founder, John Stratton, developed the ultimate “hybrid” design. By employing an intermediate mass built upon an ultra-MDF plinth, the result is an impeccably neutral sound. Bass notes are strong yet lively, and the highs are refined without being piercing.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"elementor-widget-container\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-a165397 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"a165397\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"elementor-widget-container\"\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\"\u003e6061 aircraft aluminum isolation platform\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-68b9d87 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"68b9d87\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"elementor-widget-container\"\u003eHighly regarded in aircraft and automotive construction, the 6061 aluminum alloy provides superb rigidity, resisting deformation with a Young’s modulus of 10 million psi.

Renowned for its strength and stability, stainless steel provides an unwavering platform for the tonearm, effectively dampening vibrations that could color the sound. This leads to improved tracking accuracy and a purer signal path from the cartridge to your ears, allowing you to experience music with heightened clarity and dynamic range.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo achieve such superior performance, we employ advanced CNC machining techniques in crafting our stainless steel arm boards. Our custom tools achieve repeatable tolerances of 1\/1000 inch, ensuring each piece meets our exacting standards. This meticulous machining process not only enhances the arm board's structural integrity but also its ability to isolate the tonearm from external vibrations. The result is a richer, more lifelike listening experience that embodies our commitment to exceptional audio performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-26f0af0 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"26f0af0\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"elementor-widget-container\"\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\"\u003eRuby bearing in a low-friction bronze shaft\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-8e90d9c elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"8e90d9c\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"elementor-widget-container\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBy the time sound reaches your ears, the output of a moving coil cartridge can be amplified by a factor exceeding 10,000. Consequently, even the tiniest imperfections in the turntable’s drive system can become audible concerns. Therefore, although we could acquire 100 steel bearings for the price of one ruby bearing, we opt to stick with ruby. Ruby exhibits remarkable hardness, rated 9 on the Mohs scale—only diamond is harder. Similarly, we opted for bronze instead of the industry-standard brass for the bearing shaft. Bronze provides better durability, higher strength, and a lower coefficient of friction.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-1d314c4 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"1d314c4\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"elementor-widget-container\"\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\"\u003eStainless steel pulley and two drive belts\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-32007a3 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"32007a3\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"elementor-widget-container\"\u003eAfter thorough listening experiments across multiple belt styles and configurations, we opted for two drive belts with round cross-sections.

Others choose aluminum for its high mass properties. However, in both scenarios, you’re compelled to use a mat on top to mitigate resonance and ringing. To overcome this limitation, we selected an inherently non-resonant platter material: an engineering thermoplastic called Delrin. A classic choice for applications requiring high stiffness, low friction, and excellent dimensional stability, Delrin also shares many properties with vinyl records. Moreover, it possesses the mass needed to maintain speed stability. We evaluated numerous other thermoplastics but ultimately chose Delrin for its exceptional sound quality. It delivers a very balanced frequency response with an almost organic feel to the music.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"elementor-widget-container\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-eee3973 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"eee3973\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"elementor-widget-container\"\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\"\u003eSS-100 Ruby - Steel record isolator\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-887815c elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"887815c\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"elementor-widget-container\"\u003eNot only does the supplied record weight flatten and stabilize your LPs, but it also suppresses micro-vibrations around the record label that can introduce subtle noise and veil the music. The SS-100 is a record isolator made of stainless steel and incorporates ten micro ruby balls. It slips over the spindle and rests upon the record label, contacting it through the ruby balls embedded in black Delrin to avoid deadening the sound. The result is a quieter, more detailed, and lifelike listening experience. The SS-100 measures 0.75 inches tall, 2.75 inches in diameter, and weighs 1.7 pounds (20 x 70 mm; 760 g).\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"elementor-widget-container\"\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"elementor-widget-container\"\u003e\n\u003ctable border=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" cellspacing=\"0\" width=\"465\" style=\"border-collapse: collapse; width: 567px;\" height=\"62\"\u003e\n\u003ccolgroup\u003e \u003ccol width=\"130\" style=\"width: 182px;\"\u003e \u003ccol width=\"335\" style=\"width: 384px;\"\u003e \u003c\/colgroup\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr height=\"19\" style=\"height: 14.5pt;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd height=\"19\" class=\"xl65\" width=\"130\" style=\"height: 14.5pt; width: 98pt;\"\u003eDimensions\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"xl65\" width=\"335\" style=\"width: 251pt;\"\u003e20″ wide × 16.5″ deep × 9″ high (508 × 419 × 228 mm)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr height=\"19\" style=\"height: 14.5pt;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd height=\"19\" class=\"xl65\" style=\"height: 14.5pt;\"\u003eWeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"xl65\"\u003e70 lbs.\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Pure Fidelity","offers":[{"title":"Walnut Burl High Gloss \/ No Tonearm","offer_id":67874837561625,"sku":"7167newPURE-0967-NoTA","price":16995.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Walnut Burl High Gloss \/ Savant Ti - 12\"","offer_id":67874837659929,"sku":"7167newPURE-0967-Sa","price":22995.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Walnut Burl High Gloss \/ Enterprise Mk4 - 12\"","offer_id":67874837758233,"sku":"7167newPURE-0967-E","price":24995.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Walnut Burl High Gloss \/ PU-8 12\"","offer_id":67874837856537,"sku":"7167newPURE-0967-P","price":26995.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Walnut Burl High Gloss \/ Agile - 12\"","offer_id":67874837954841,"sku":"7167newPURE-0967-A","price":28995.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Karelian Birch Matte \/ No Tonearm","offer_id":67874837594393,"sku":"7167newPURE-0968-NoTA","price":16995.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Karelian Birch Matte \/ Savant Ti - 12\"","offer_id":67874837692697,"sku":"7167newPURE-0968-Sa","price":22995.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Karelian Birch Matte \/ Enterprise Mk4 - 12\"","offer_id":67874837791001,"sku":"7167newPURE-0968-E","price":24995.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Karelian Birch Matte \/ PU-8 12\"","offer_id":67874837889305,"sku":"7167newPURE-0968-P","price":26995.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Karelian Birch Matte \/ Agile - 12\"","offer_id":67874837987609,"sku":"7167newPURE-0968-A","price":28995.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Quilted Maple High Gloss \/ No Tonearm","offer_id":67874837627161,"sku":"7167newPURE-0966-NoTA","price":16995.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Quilted Maple High Gloss \/ Savant Ti - 12\"","offer_id":67874837725465,"sku":"7167newPURE-0966-Sa","price":22995.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Quilted Maple High Gloss \/ Enterprise Mk4 - 12\"","offer_id":67874837823769,"sku":"7167newPURE-0966-E","price":24995.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Quilted Maple High Gloss \/ PU-8 12\"","offer_id":67874837922073,"sku":"7167newPURE-0966-P","price":26995.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Quilted Maple High Gloss \/ Agile - 12\"","offer_id":67874838020377,"sku":"7167newPURE-0966-A","price":28995.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Bubinga \/ No Tonearm","offer_id":67875766370585,"sku":"7167newPURE-0969-NoTA","price":16995.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Bubinga \/ Savant Ti - 12\"","offer_id":67875765846297,"sku":"7167newPURE-0969-Sa","price":22995.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Bubinga \/ Enterprise Mk4 - 12\"","offer_id":67875766862105,"sku":"7167newPURE-0969-E","price":24995.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Bubinga \/ PU-8 12\"","offer_id":67875766993177,"sku":"7167newPURE-0969-P","price":26995.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Bubinga \/ Agile - 12\"","offer_id":67875766698265,"sku":"7167newPURE-0969-A","price":28995.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0844\/4225\/1545\/files\/PureFidelitySymphonyTurntable_2.jpg?v=1792678829","url":"https:\/\/tmraudio.com\/products\/pure-fidelity-symphony-turntable","provider":"The Music Room","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
