Simply Black Magic V2
Simply Black Magic V2 is a record player that is both designed and manufactured in Sweden. With long experience the starting point has been high precision, the right materials and smart solutions.
The boomerang-shaped chassis makes the construction almost completely resonance free. A high precision bearing dressed with Teflon makes the platter in acrylic spin with incredible stability. A unique feature is that you can adjust the VTA by moving the turntable vertically.

Reviews
“A new Swedish turntable that in all its simplicity can battle it out with the big dragons. Additionally, it’s the most silent kid in class…”
“Even with a more basic pickup the combination gives stringency in the attack and a violent explosive force to the sound that defies the wispy look of the player”
