TEAC TN-280BT-A3 Bluetooth Wireless Turntable Carbon Upgrade

TEAC TN-280BT-A3 BLUETOOH WIRELESS TURNTABLE CARBON FIDELITY UPGRADE
- Amazingly nuanced out of the box, bluetooth wireless convenient table that you can grow with.

A turntable designed for a new record enthusiast who wants to experience the ownership and joy of a true turntable, the TN-280BT-A3 comes with two essential parts missing in most plug-and-play starter turntables from Audio-Technica (AT-LP60, AT-LP70), Sony (PS-LX310BT), Denon (DP-29F), etc.: (1) a detachable headshell (with replaceable cartidge) and (2) a tonearm with adjustable counterweight and anti-skating for precision tracking force and trecord groove tracing. These two are missing in most plug-and-play starter turntables from Audio-Technica, Sony, Denon, etc. These turntables restrict the end-user to a particular budget cartridge and stylus, thus constraining sound quality.

Not the TEAC TN-280BT-A3.

A better turntable with modern conveniences
The TEAC TN-280BT-A3 is a well-built, reliable turntable. Upgraded with the LP GEAR Carbon Fidelity CF3600LE cartridge and stylus, it's so versatile, and so tonally fantastic you won't really want more in terms of sound quality. BUT if you still want to change things around — you can. It comes with a built-in phono preamp that allows you to connect directly to any amplifier or receiver you might own. It also has built-in Bluetooth that lets you stream from the 'table to compatible speakers or headphones, for a touch of modern convenience.

Hear music, the way you want to hear it
Under the turntable's finished exterior is a heavy MDF base designed to minimize airborne, external and internal vibration. Its die-cast aluminum platter delivers smooth, silent, rotational speed accuracy. Its variable-speed belt-drive system decouples and isolates motor vibration from the platter. It can play 33-1/3 and 45 rpm discs. The straight tonearm — equipped with a detachable headshell and pre-mounted LP GEAR CF3600LE moving-magnet cartridge — offers exceptional timbre and tonal accuracy.

Enjoy refreshing clarity, extension and improved detail with minimal setup.
At the start, you may just want to spend as little time possible setting up your system so you can get right to the joy of listening. That's why the TN-280BT-A3 comes out of the box virtually ready to play. Its legendary pre-mounted LP GEAR CF3600LE phono cartridge and tonearm take the guesswork out of installation, and give you sound quality (SQ) beyond turntables 2-3x its price. A few simple steps to dial in key settings like tracking force and anti- skating are all it takes to get ready to play. BUT later on, when you want more SQ, you can optimize the turntable's set-up, which is the beauty and flexibility of this turnatble.
