Music Hall Presents a Sleek and Elegant Design for the Stealth Turntable

The Music Hall Stealth turntable boasts a simple and minimalist look that gives it a professional and decidedly audiophile appearance. Its multi-layered synthetic chassis and matte black finish provide a modern and refined look, far from the austerity that dark shades can sometimes convey. The various layers of the chassis, slightly offset from each other, add depth and character to the whole.

Robust and Anti-Vibration Design

Weighing 11 kg, the Stealth rests on an anti-vibration chassis designed to ensure great stability during playback. Four large damping feet made of high-viscosity elastomer effectively isolate the turntable from external vibrations. This meticulous design guarantees precise and detailed sound reproduction, free from any unwanted interference.

A Solid Aluminum Platter

The platter of the Music Hall Stealth is crafted from a solid block of aluminum weighing approximately 1.8 kg. Slightly larger than a standard 33 RPM record, it is covered with a thick rubber mat that optimizes vibration damping. A center adapter is also provided to facilitate the playback of 45 RPM records. The turntable comes with a dust cover to protect the entire unit.

An Adjustable S-Shaped Tonearm

Made from solid aluminum, the S-shaped tonearm of the Stealth offers numerous adjustment possibilities for optimal setup. The counterweight, anti-skating, and even the vertical tracking angle (VTA) of the cartridge are adjustable via dedicated knobs. These adjustments allow for fine-tuning the turntable to different cartridges and achieving impeccable groove tracking.

A Renowned Ortofon 2M Blue Cartridge

The Music Hall Stealth comes equipped with the renowned Ortofon 2M Blue moving magnet cartridge. With its elliptical stylus, this cartridge is distinguished by great linearity and high sensitivity. It is perfectly suited to the Stealth’s tonearm and allows you to get the most out of your records.

A Brushless Direct Drive Motor

Unlike most belt-driven turntables, the Stealth adopts direct drive. Its low-torque brushless motor is electronically controlled. Three speeds are available: 33, 45, and 78 RPM. The motor automatically stops at the end of a side or after 20 minutes of inactivity, a feature that can be disabled according to user preferences.

External Connectivity and Power Supply

The Music Hall Stealth turntable features a pair of RCA jacks for connecting to a preamplifier or an amplifier with a phono input. A ground terminal is also present. The turntable is powered by a dedicated power adapter that limits interference and background noise.

Thoughtful Features

In addition to its smart auto-stop feature, the Stealth includes some welcome functionalities. The playback speed is selected directly on the platter with a simple press. The tonearm is equipped with a removable headshell, making cartridge replacement easy. Finally, detachable RCA cables are provided for a custom connection to your setup.

Does the Music Hall Stealth come with all the necessary accessories for use?

Yes, this turntable is sold with its platter, rubber mat, 45 RPM adapter, counterweight, dust cover, and RCA cables. All you need to do is connect it to your hi-fi system.

Can I easily change the original cartridge if I want to?

Absolutely, the Stealth’s tonearm features a removable headshell, making it very easy to replace the Ortofon 2M Blue cartridge with a model of your choice. Just make sure to adjust the tonearm accordingly.

Does this turntable require an external phono preamp?

The Music Hall Stealth does not have a built-in phono preamp. Therefore, it needs to be connected to a dedicated phono preamp or an amplifier with a phono input; otherwise, the signal will be too weak.

Are the tonearm adjustments complicated to perform?

Not at all, the adjustment dials for the counterweight, anti-skating, and vertical tracking angle (VTA) are clearly marked and easily accessible. With a bit of practice, you’ll be able to set up the tonearm in just a few minutes.

Can the Stealth play my old 78 RPM records?

Yes, this turntable can play 33 RPM, 45 RPM, and also 78 RPM records. You just need to select the appropriate speed. However, note that it’s preferable to use a spherical stylus cartridge to avoid damaging the wider grooves of 78 RPM records.

What the press says

I must say that as a turntable, its features and performance are stellar. I love that it offers interchangeable headshells and an auto-stop function, and the unique VTA adjustment is handy. Its sound is simply top-notch, and the more I hear the Ortofon 2M Blue cartridge, the more I like it. Roy Hall noted that the Stealth sounds "musical," and I agree with him 100%. Put simply, the Music Hall Stealth succeeds in every area.

Je dois dire qu'en tant que platine, ses caractéristiques et ses performances sont stellaires. J'aime le fait qu'il offre des coques interchangeables et une fonction d'arrêt automatique, et le réglage VTA unique est utile. Son son est tout simplement au top, et plus j'entends la cellule Ortofon 2M Blue, plus je l'aime. Roy Hall a noté que le Stealth sonne "musical", et je suis d'accord avec lui à 100%. En termes simples, la Music Hall Stealth réussit dans tous les domaines.
