The E1 is the first E-Line turntable, delivering an immersive audio experience and handmade European engineering at an affordable price. It doesn‘t matter if you are a beginner, returnee or experienced vinyl fan, the E1 won‘t disappoint! Its Plug & Play design with factory-set tracking force and anti-skating ensures optimal calibration for your turntable straight out of the box. Just kick back and enjoy your favourite LPs. The E1 is available in three different versions to fit everyone‘s needs. All three models are equipped with an 33/45 RPM electronic speed switch.

The stylish CNC-machined composite fibre plinth, available in high gloss black, high gloss white or walnut, is carefully manufactured to ensure there are no hollow spaces inside. The lightweight and low friction 8.6“ aluminium tonearm is optimised for the high quality Ortofon OM5e cartridge, realising its maximum potential. The new ABS Polymer main platter is strengthened with purpose-designed ridges in order to create an anti- resonant platform for your vinyl. To protect your E1 from dust, it's packaged with an elegant acrylic dustcover with adjustable hinges in the box. Boasting premium materials, stylish aesthetics and a rich, lively sound, the E1 is perfect for both first time hifi buyers and lifelong enthusiasts.
