La
Luce turntable is the smallest of the Spotheim SpJ La Luce
series.
La
Luce turntable is a low energy storage, direct-coupled,
non-suspended design. The
transparent acrylic platter's mass
and inertia is increased by the embedded stainless steel weights
around the platter periphery.
 |
A
central, asymmetric acrylic block holds the bearing house.
The pick-up
arm is directly connected
to this acrylic central block.
An
acrylic cylinder is bolted to the underside of the
central block and this forms a T-shaped support.
|
|
La-Luce
turntable rests on three contact points and is levelled
by adjustment knobs on each side of the T-shape support.
All
major components are individually machined from billets
of transparent acrylic.
|
 |
 |
The
ideal mechanical impedance match of the acrylic material
and record vinyl allows stylus-induced resonance to pass
smoothly into the mass of the platter and platform.
Platter
revolving mass: 8-Kg.
|
|
A
soft belt drives the platter at 33.3-RPM or at the 45-RMP
platter speed.
The
belt is connected to the outboard direct drive synchronous
AC motor, which is set inside a massive metal housing.
