The EAT C-Note features a 10-inch arm designed for exceptional stability and minimal friction. Its internal silicone lubricant effectively diminishes resonances by more than 50%. Both the main plate and the 900-gram sub-plate are constructed from solid aluminum. The turntable motor is housed in a separate steel system, ensuring it operates quietly and is well-isolated. The EAT C-Dur Concrete utilizes a polished rubber belt to facilitate accurate rotation transmission to the aluminum sub-chassis. With electronic speed control, users can easily and precisely adjust the rotation speed for both 33 and 45 rpm.
