Avid Sequel Turntable

The Sequel uses a sophisticated three-point spring suspension system that is frequency-adjustable. By isolating the playback from external vibrations—like footsteps or speaker feedback—it ensures the stylus maintains precise contact with the groove for cleaner, more stable audio.

The dedicated external power supply uses digital signal processing to maintain absolute speed accuracy. This eliminates the minor fluctuations in pitch that can occur with standard motors, ensuring your records play back at the exact speed intended.

Yes, because this is a moving coil cartridge with a low output voltage of 0.32 mV, you will need a phono stage or preamplifier that supports MC (Moving Coil) cartridges. Ensure your equipment has the appropriate gain settings to handle this lower output level.

The 6.7 kg precision-machined aluminum platter provides high rotational inertia, which acts like a flywheel to smooth out speed inconsistencies. This mass helps the turntable maintain consistent momentum, resulting in a more dynamic and rhythmic sound.

The bearing is designed to be self-lubricating, which minimizes the need for frequent user maintenance. However, it is built with high-tolerance materials like stainless steel and a tungsten carbide/sapphire thrust point to ensure long-term durability and low friction.

Yes, the DSP-controlled power supply allows you to switch between 33.3 and 45 RPM speeds electronically. You do not need to manually move the belt, which makes changing speeds simple and precise.
