Clearaudio Ovation Turntable
Ovation
The design of the clearaudio Ovation tunrtable seems both timeless and minimalist – maximum music enjoyment needs no embellishment.
Within the precision-machined chassis of the Clearaudio Ovation turntable, comprising a sandwich of aluminium and panzerholz bulletproof wood, 100,000 tiny metal balls eliminate any possibility of harmful resonances. Hidden under a 40mm-thick platter made of resonance-damping POM is a very quiet, decoupled DC motor with high torque.
With Clearaudio’s optical speed control (OSC) and ceramic magnetic bearing (CMB), the Ovation achieves supreme speed stability and redefines the standards in its class. Audio journal ‘The Absolute Sound’ recognised the Ovation’s superior qualities and declared it ‘Turntable of the Year’.
