Garrard 301 Reviews

February 2, 2009  |  Turntable Reviews

The Garrard model 301 engine is the culmination of more than 40 years of experience in designing and manufacturing high-quality turntables. The engine has been designed to provide the professional user and enthusiast the highest quality in its class.

The model 301 has three controls to control the range of engine speeds on the right side, the speed control is in the center and on-off knob on the left side.

The Garrard 301 has very low wow and flutter, ringing almost non-existent. Each of the three speeds is adjustable through a special design that runs a command Foucault is needed to curb the speed to be obtained.

Great attention has been given to detail appreciated by the connoisseur such as a suppressor of the unit to prevent the change of clicks, a large turntable with aluminum castings and precision balanced, tempered and finished a strong super-rotation axis, an intermediate wheel and a brake retraction to curtail the freedom of the revolutions of the turntable about the disconnection.

The unit comes with a strobe, with adapter for recording 7 "records (the kinds with big hole and the clip).
