MUSIC HALL MMF3.3 SE BLK TURNTABLE

We are pleased to introduce our first entry-level table utilizing the unique dual-plinth technology originated by music hall. The mmf-3.3 embodies the culmination of over 30 years of research, development, and most important of all, listening. The 3-speed belt driven table was developed for those seeking a perfectly matched set of features with an uncompromising focus on sound performance. The 3.3 is constructed using high quality components and comes complete with a tonearm, cartridge mounted, and dust cover.

 

Speed control

The 3.3 has a built-in electronic speed control for 33/45/and 78.  The platter speed switches from 33 to 45 rpm at the touch of a button. 78 rpm requires the movement of the belt to a different location on the motor pulley, and the use of a different belt, included with the turntable.

Carbon fiber arm with bonded alloy headshell

This tonearm is unique to music hall.  Bonding the alloy headshell to the carbon arm-tube stiffens and dampens the carbon fiber tube.  This construction significantly improves the sound and performance over similar looking one-piece carbon arms.  The alloy headshell allows you to securely mount the cartridge to the tonearm without the twist and flex that is common in lesser one-piece carbon arms.  Tonearms should not twist/flex as this negatively impacts the cartridge and tonearm’s ability to properly track the record groove. On many one-piece carbon tonearms, you can literally pinch the cartridge end of arm between your thumb and forefinger and twist/flex the arm-tube.  Try this with the music hall and the tonearm remains rigid as your fingers begin to ache.  

The arm itself is housed in a 4-point gimbal bearing construction using Swiss ABEC bearings.  This is superior to many of music hall’s competitors who use a lesser 2-point bearing system.
