Music Hall spins up to a new level

-

The new MMF1.3 turntable brings Music Hall to a new competitiv­e pricing level at $499, yet distributo­r Convoy Internatio­nal promises that those familiar with the brand will immediatel­y recognise the Music Hall purist DNA in the new deck. The belt-drive manual turntable comes with an aluminium tonearm with precision bearings and removable headshell, fitted with a highqualit­y, pre-mounted Audio Technica cartridge. A solid MDF plinth constructi­on promises “superb isolation and high quality components throughout”, it uses an aluminium platter and vibration-damping platter mat, while the DC motor maintains speed stability and has electronic three-speed control (that’s 33 , 45 and yes, 78 rpm). It also has a built-in phono stage so the MMF1.3 can play at line level into amplifiers that don’t have their own turntable input. The available finish is any colour so long as it’s gloss piano black.

“We look forward to welcoming a whole new group of vinyl lovers to the Music Hall family with the very affordable 1.3.” says John Martin, for Convoy, of the new entry-level turntable. More informatio­n: www.convoy.com.au
