EAT Fortissimo Turntable

Due to its significant mass, you must place this turntable on a heavy-duty, vibration-resistant rack or platform capable of supporting at least 70 kg. Ensure the surface is perfectly level to maintain the integrity of the magnetic suspension system.

The Fortissimo is typically sold as a turntable chassis, allowing you to choose your preferred components. While it is compatible with a wide range of cartridges, the EAT F-Note tonearm is available as an optional upgrade designed specifically for this model.

The dual motor configuration provides increased torque and consistent rotational stability, which is essential for a platter of this size. By balancing the drive force, the system minimizes vibration and ensures the speed remains precise during playback.

No, the Fortissimo is a pure analog playback device and does not feature a built-in preamp. You will need to connect it to an external phono stage or an amplifier with a dedicated phono input to achieve the best sound quality.

The Fortissimo uses a manual speed change mechanism. You will need to adjust the belt position on the motor pulley to switch between 33.33 and 45.11 RPM.

No, a dust cover is not included with the Fortissimo. Given the turntable's unique dimensions and massive footprint, you may need to source a custom-made cover or ensure your listening room is kept clean to protect the platter and bearing.
