Xircle Turntable

R 90,000.00

Connect intimately with your music, the Xircle is designed for the music connoisseur with a performance that will draw you in. Experience the emotion of music from the finest details and tonal hues to huge dynamics.

Critical attention is paid to various key elements that enable the Xircle to provide a perfect platform. These include features such as, off-board motor pod and controller, multiple acoustic de-coupling measures, constrained layer plinth assembly, dual layer high inertia platter assembly, substantially engineered, fine tolerance bearing assembly.

Features and Specifications

ISOLATION PODS. Three high mass isolation pods, separate from plinth, acting like shock absorbers, provide isolation from stand borne vibrations. The front two are adjustable to level the turntable.
PLINTH ASSEMBLY. Multiple layers of steel and MDF separated by PU elastomer assembled in a ‘constrained layer’ configuration, create a high mass non resonant assembly. The plinth and bearing assembly weigh 25 kg.

BEARING ASSEMBLY. Precision ground heavy duty 16 mm diameter shaft, immersed in oil, sintered phosphor bronze bearing sleeves in 60 mm brass housing. Ceramic thrust bearing and pad. Mass damping surrounding bearing housing.

PLATTER ASSEMBLY. Consists of two layers, de-coupled from each other, the lower disc is 30 mm thick aluminium and the upper layer is 18 mm of POM, this configuration prevents unwanted vibrations from reaching the surface. The platter has a high inertia due to the 7.5 kg weight of the assembly. A screw clamp engages the record to the platter surface.

DRIVE SYSTEM. Belt drive with an off-board motor pod weighing 7 kg. thus, eliminating motor vibrations from affecting the plinth. The motor is an AC synchronous motor. Speed selection button’s function as on and off buttons.

CONTROL SYSTEM. The power supply and controller are housed in a separate, off board chassis to eliminate radiation noise from affecting the pick-up. Each power supply is tuned to its specific motor using phase control for the smoothest operation. Speed setting accurate to 0.03 %. There is a timed start up speed ramp up to reduce stress on the motor and belt.

ARM BOARD ASSEMBLY. Constructed of aluminium, steel, and POM, using the constrained layer principle, with acoustic isolation from the plinth thus creating an inert platform for the tonearm. Adaptors made to accommodate all types of tonearms.

DIMENSIONS AND WEIGHT. W = 503 mm, D = 450 mm.
Overall weight of turntable = 47 kg.
