The result is superlative sonic stability and impressive high resolution audio.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>An excellent, easily upgradable audio-technica AT-VM95E cartridge, with an elliptical- shaped stylus, comes pre-installed on the universal-type headshell for convenience. After you\u2019ve opened the box, set up the platter and mounted the headshell on the tonearm, you&#8217;ll be ready to enjoy your records.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The belt-drive mechanism, meanwhile, helps mitigate any unwanted cogging effects (i.e. fine pulsing) from the operation of the motor, to ensure a precise and smooth platter rotation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The TN-3B also sports an in-built Phono EQ amplifier (using a high-precision NJM8080 op- amp), allowing users who lack an amplifier with a built-in phono stage to enjoy the sound of their vinyl records, with low distortion and in high quality. What\u2019s more, a built-in Analogue- to-Digital converter and USB port allow users to digitise their vinyl libraries on their PC\/Mac.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The TN-3B delivers a natural and well-balanced sound quality and is supremely quick and easy to set up and start enjoying. We believe it sets a new standard that will satisfy the needs of both audiophiles and ardent record collectors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"hx wp-block-heading\">Features<\/h2>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<ul><li>2-speed, belt-drive turntable offering 33-1\/3 and 45 rpm speeds<\/li><li>Knife-edge, pivot-point tonearm designed by high-end tonearm manufacturer SAEC<\/li><li>Static-balanced, S-shaped tone-arm with pre-installed audio-technica AT-VM95E MM cartridge<\/li><li>Die-cast aluminium platter<\/li><li>USB digital output for digital archiving on PC\/Mac<\/li><li>PHONO\/LINE analogue outputs (switchable)<\/li><li>Built-in PHONO EQ amplifier, compatible with MM-type cartridges<\/li><li>Hi-fi grade NJM8080 op-amp used in PHONO EQ stage<\/li><\/ul>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>With vinyl sales at their highest for quarter of a century, it\u2019s an auspicious time for the introduction of the TEAC TN-3B, a stylish new, sleek-looking belt-drive turntable that comes complete with a built-in MM-type PHONO EQ amplifier and USB digital output.
