The RPM 9 Carbon boasts a new 7.2kg polished aluminium platter, inspired by the award-winning Xtension 9 SuperPack record player. The platter is internally lined with Thermo-Plastic Elastomer (TPE) damping material and topped with vinyl. The whole platter sits on top of a high-quality inverted ceramic main bearing for a completely stable turntable speed with extra-low rumble.

Key Features:

  • Premium 'teardrop' turntable design
  • Advanced sandwich construction of plinth made from MDF, carbon fibre and steel pellets 
  • Mass-loaded subchassis design with magnetic feet 
  • Inverted main bearing with ceramic ball
  • 7.2kg acoustically inert aluminium platter with TPE damping and vinyl mat
  • Precise DC driven AC generator (Speed Box) built-in to motor
  • Electronic speed control with easy switching between 33 and 45RPM 
  • Outboard motor construction with massive steel base 
  • Pre-mounted 9CC Evolution tonearm

The stylish plinth design has been chosen due to its improved resonance characteristics. The CNC-machined MDF structure is packed with resin-coated steel pellets to form a high-mass sandwich construction that provides a firm base for the turntable. The whole plinth is then put through a complex heat treatment process and coated in a carbon fibre surface to reduce resonance levels as low as possible. The main turntable structure is then effectively decoupled from its support thanks to the plinth’s magnetic feet.
