TEAC TN-4D-O black

New motor, developed exclusively for direct drive turntables

The TN-4D uses an elegant brushless DC motor, offering crystal-lock speed accuracy, regulated by a computer-controlled feedback circuit and achieving low levels of wow and flutter for a direct drive turntable, especially one with such an elegant, low-profile design.

Pre-installed Oyster cartridge by SUMIKO

The TN-4D comes with a highly regarded Oyster MM cartridge from SUMIKO - a legendary American cartridge manufacturer. Regardless of the type of music, the Oyster cartridge delivers a powerful yet insightful performance.

Built-in PHONO EQ amplifier supporting MM cartridges

The TN-4D comes with a built-in PHONO EQ amplifier that allows you to directly connect the turntable to the line-level inputs of your existing hi-fi system. The NJM8080 integrated circuit from New Japan Radio Corporation is used for the operational amplifier functions, elevating the level of the tiny signals received via the cartridge up to LINE level strength without any loss in quality.

Knife-edge pivot point tonearm bearings

In collaboration with SAEC Corporation, a world-renowned high-end tonearm manufacturer, the TN-4D’s tonearm uses a knife-edge pivot point bearing. Unlike the case with conventional bearing tonearms, all the fine vertical movements encountered by this tonearm actually help to deliver a more dynamic sound with excellent resolution. The S-shaped tonearm also uses a universal headshell connector, allowing users to quickly and easily swap cartridges/headshells, and supports a wide range of cartridge weights (from 14 to 23 g).
