Teac TN-400BT-X Walnut Bluetooth Turntable

Released: 21st February 2024. TN-400BT-X   The TN-400BT-X is an analog turntable that also allows users to listen to LP r ecords wirelessly via Bluetooth® headphones & speakers. A die cast aluminum platter provides accurate rotational speed while an S-shaped static balanced aluminum tone arm provides accurate tracking. The built in Phono EQ amplifier enables the TN-400BT-X to be connected to a conventional hi-fi amplifier or a micro hi-fi system, while a universal type headshell allows users to change cartridges with ease. A built in Bluetooth® transmitter also lets users listen to LP records wirelessly with high quality audio (thanks to the the aptX® and AAC codecs).  Aluminum die-cast platter with 3 speed belt drive A die cast, high inertia aluminum platter is driven by a high torque DC motor via a durable rubber flat-belt, giving immensely stable playback at 33 1/3, 45 and 78 rpm speeds. New low resistance spindle A precisely machined stainless steel spindle and durable brass bearing maintain accurate rotational speed, thanks to reduced friction Built in Phono EQ amplifier The TN-400BT-X has an onboard Phono EQ amplifier that supports MM type cartridges , allowing the deck to be connected to conventional amplifiers or micro systems that lack a dedicated turntable input. The Phono EQ amplifier employs a hi-fi quality NJM8080 op-amp chip (designed by JRC) which amplifies the tiny audio signal from the stylus with minimal distortion. New subsonic filter for improved sound By filtering out the frequencies below 18Hz, the TN-400BT-X prevents excess LF signal levels being sent to amplifiers, presenting an easier electrical load to any connected speakers. This filter is particularly effective when playing back warped vinyl records which would otherwise induce undesirable woofer movement (the subsonic filter is off when Phono EQ is THRU). S-shaped s tatic balanced tone arm The S-shaped, static-balanced aluminum tone-arm is equipped with a counterweight and anti-skating mechanism that allow an exact setting of balance as well as tracking pressure, ensuring accurate tracking during playback. A tone-arm lifter is also fitted for smooth lowering of the tone-arm onto records. The tone-arm takes universal type headshells so users can change cartridges with relative ease. In order to reduce signal losses between the tone arm and the headshell, gold plated contact points are employed to help deliver an uncorrupted audio signal. Bluetooth® wireless audio streaming with aptX® codec The TN-400BT’s Bluetooth® wireless transmission system supports the higher quality aptX® and AAC codecs, as well as the conventional SBC codec. This means that even if users don't have a hi-fi system, then can still enjoy truly high quality vinyl replay via Bluetooth® equipped headphones or speakers. Connecting the TN-400BT-X to Bluetooth® headphones or speakers is easily achieved at the touch of a button. A single function-pairing key and an associated LED indicator provide simple and clear confirmation of the connection status. Beautifully detailed The TN-400BT-X brings elegance to the process of playing a record. The machined aluminum operation knobs ooze quality while the aluminum feet, attached to high-density MDF chassis via shock absorbing rubber, provide a high resistance to feedback. MM-type Cartridge from audio-technica The deck comes with an excellent, all purpose MM cartridge, employing a lightweight aluminum cantilever, that helps deliver an a ccurate, highly musical standard of playback.
