A good, soft, scratch resistant platter to keep your records safe while spinning.

U-Turn’s tonearms are the same across all their models, and that’s a very good thing. Their tonearm is incredibly impressive for the price with very little friction and virtually no bearing wobble while playing.

While an upgrade right off the bat would bring you over $200, having the option for an upgradable needle cartridge is a huge plus. This also includes different color choices, and ordering custom allows for a maple or walnut finish on the plinth.

Having a solid platter under your vinyl is very important to prevent damage to the record and keep it playing smoothly. The plinth itself is supported by three solid, semi-hard rubber feet that suppress vibration and keep the player steady. The platter is also really securely attached to the plinth, with virtually zero wobble.

Belt driven platters keep your record playing more smoothly and can prevent skipping. The driver itself is a super quiet AC motor that is next to impossible to hear while playing.
