A Solid Foundation
Essential III uses a solid MDF base (or plinth), meaning there are no cavernous hollow spaces that would otherwise resonate and negatively impact sound quality. Top-quality MDF (medium-density fiber) is implemented for rigidity and for effective resonance absorption. This amounts to compelling audio reproduction that will last you a lifetime. The base is supported by decoupling isolation feet borrowed from the world-famous Debut Carbon
Decoupled Motor & Acrylic Platter Upgrade
A precision-machined diamond-cut motor pulley helps to ascertain speed stability and longevity. The pulley is propelled by a high quality DC-driven motor control circuit delivering precision in speed and low resonance transfer. The motor and pulley are offset from the platter and bearing to further isolate the record while it plays. Adding Acryl it E not only enhances the stylish aesthetics, but the material is widely known to improve sound quality via resonance suppression. Over the lacquered MDF plinth and the effective isolation feet, the machine operates silently.
