Garrard - 301 & SME 3009 Tonearm Turntable - Multiple models
The Garrard model 301 transcription motor is the culmination of over 40 years experience in the design and manufacture of high quality gramophone equipment. The motor unit has been designed to provide the professional user and quality enthusiast with a unit supreme in it's class.
The model 301 transcription motor has three controls, the speed range knob on the right hand side, speed adjusting control in the centre and the on-off knob on the left hand side.
It has extremely low wow and flutter content, rumble being almost non-existent. Each of the three speeds is adjustable by means of a knob which operates a specially designed eddy current brake to enable precise speed to be obtained.
Great attention has been given to details appreciated by the connoisseur, such as a suppressor unit to avoid switch clicks, a heavy turntable die-cast in aluminium and accurately balanced, a robust hardened and super finished turntable spindle, a fully retracting intermediate wheel and a brake to reduce the free revolutions of the turntable on switching off.
