Playing vinyl on a turntable is a physical wonder. It is all about vibrations. Of course, the vibrations of the sound waves are the most important – after all, you want to listen to music! However, the different parts of a turntable also create vibrations, and this phenomenon must be considered during the construction of a turntable.
For example, did you know that the vibrational waves which are created reach the element and the needle through the base, the tonearm, and other ways? And speaking of the needle… it generates all kinds of forces on the grooves of the record which must be kept under control.
According to Newton’s third law, vibration will occur inside the record as the needle scans the groove. The details of your favourite music can be lost or distorted if the turntable is not well designed for these vibrations.
Therefore, every force and path that can be travelled by vibration waves must be examined. By making sure that you use the right materials and by connecting them in the right way, your music sounds like never before on the Takumi TT level 2.1DC.
