Precision-Crafted Knife-Edge, Pivot-Point Tone-Arm Bearings

In collaboration with SAEC, a renowned high-end tonearm manufacturer, the TN-3B-SE boasts a tonearm equipped with knife-edge, pivot-point bearings. Unlike conventional bearings, this tonearm's subtle movements enhance dynamic sound and resolution. The S-shaped tonearm also features a universal headshell fitting, accommodating cartridges ranging from 14 to 23g (0.5 to 0.8 oz.).

Accurate Anti-Skating and Stylus-Pressure Adjustment

The static-balanced, S-shaped tonearm includes a counterweight for precise stylus-pressure adjustment and an anti-skating mechanism for accurate tracking force adjustment, ensuring precise vinyl playback.

Pre-Installed VM-Series Cartridge

We've pre-installed an Audio-Technica AT-VM95E cartridge with an elliptically shaped stylus tip on the headshell for your convenience. Unbox, set up the platter, attach the headshell to the tonearm, and start enjoying your records.

Incorporated MM-Type Phono EQ Amplifier

The TN-3B-SE features an MM-type phono EQ amplifier, allowing you to connect it to conventional amplifiers or hi-fi systems without a PHONO input. It utilizes the low-distortion, hi-fi-grade NJM8080 op-amp to elevate phono cartridge signals to LINE level.

External Belt-Drive with Aluminum Die-Cast Platter

Our belt-drive system minimizes motor cogging effects by driving the outer rim of the platter, providing enhanced performance and stability.

Exquisite Multi-Layer Lacquer Paint Finish

All internal components are securely mounted on a robust, high-density MDF plinth to reduce vibrations. The TN-3B-SE's sleek and stylish design seamlessly integrates into any home environment, creating the perfect ambiance for your vinyl listening experience.

33-1/3 and 45 RPM 2-Speed Turntable

Supporting both 33-1/3 and 45 RPM speeds for LP and EP records, the TN-3B-SE boasts precision engineering, including a machined aluminum rotary control for start-up and speed selection.

Effective Shock-Absorbing Insulating Feet

Our insulating feet feature machined aluminum shells topped with rubber cushions, firmly attached to the high-density MDF plinth, ensuring exceptional shock absorption and resistance to acoustic feedback.

Unique Honeycomb-Patterned Bottom Panel

To achieve a sleek cabinet design without compromising rigidity, the bottom panel is adorned with a honeycomb pattern that effectively minimizes unwanted vibrations.
