We've always endeavoured to prove that music can sound better than with any digital medium. Now with the Xtension, we aim to bring back a classical analogue concept from the eighties, and combine it with our advanced contemporary technologies. After eighteen years of turntable manufacturing for vinyl lovers on a budget, we're delighted to announce our first deck not subscribed to budgetary limitations... And boy, does it deliver.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOur critically acclaimed 6perspeX has already proved the fantastic result of using magnets to isolate the sub-chassis. This technology has been re-developed so that the Xtension 12 Evolution can use new magnetic feet, almost completely decoupling the main plinth. Combine this with the weighty 25kg total mass of the turntable, and you've got a unique combination of\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003emass loaded\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eand\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003efloating turntable\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003edesign principles for absolute minimal base resonance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn keeping with these principles, the platter is metal for the sake of its higher mass than other materials. However, the old standard adoption of pure metal has been abandoned because of its highly-resonant tendencies. Instead, we've found a perfect alloy which we dampened on the inner side with Sorbothane. Taking this base, we've glued recycled records to the top (which act as a perfect mat) and baked it before precision balancing it. The final product subsequently benefits from a wonderfully resonance-free, heavy platter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAnother consideration was the amount of energy the tonearm base would have to take from arm and cartridge movement. These energies have to be controlled, as do those from the motor and the bearing. They have to be kept away from the tonearm to avoid interference. Consequently, the tonearm base on the Xtension 12 Evolution also benefits from high mass technologies, and is isolated from the main board by a sheet of Sorbothane®. This board is still able to incorporate the adoption of different tonearms.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Xtension 12 Evolution comes with a beautiful dustcover with adjustable hinges. It truly delivers a timelessly classic, exclusive analogue
