ATR Celebration 40 Super Pack 2 Turntable with SPU ATR Celebration 40, white and PRO-JECT MC Step up Box
Consistently classically perfected! At the beginning of the 1990s, when the LP had long been overtaken by the CD and almost all record player factories were closed, Pro-Ject dared to start over as a record player manufacturer. At that time, ATR - Audio Trade was the world's first sales partner, and today Pro-Ject is the world's largest producer of analogue drives in the high-quality sector.
Reason enough to celebrate ATR's 40th anniversary with a turntable created especially for this occasion: With the ATR Celebration 40, we have chosen the best-of turntable from the cornucopia of technical possibilities offered by our partners Pro-Ject and Ortofon for our fortieth anniversary ATR Celebration 40 granted.
The ATR Celebration 40 Pure is available in its pure form without a pickup or in two sets with a price advantage. In the SuperPack 1, it comes with a low-output MC pickup, the Ortofon SPU ATR Celebration 40, which has won multiple awards. The Ortofon 6NX TSW-1010-5P phono cable that comes with the turntable guarantees the best signal transmission. And if you like it very classic, you can also add the Ortofon ST-7 MC transformer to the SuperPack 2 (this version).
A transformer (in principle high-precision wound and shielded coils) passively helps the weak output signal of a low-output MC pickup, so that the use of an MM phono preamplifier becomes possible. Positive side effect: With a transformer, potential negative mains influences have no effect on the critical first amplification and no additional noise can arise. Ideal not only for tube amplifiers where there should be no transistor in the signal path.
Features
**at 1000Hz, 5cm/sec. **at recommended tracking force. (1 inch = 2.54cm)
PRO-JECT MC Step up Box (black or silver)
The output level of MC cartridges is very low, compared to a MM (Moving Magnet) one it is about 10x lower, which means, you need a special phono amplifier. A higher gain is needed to utilize the signals, which can result in a higher noise level and distortion. The MC Step Up Box S3 is the solution.
Lively, dynamic & natural
The MC Step Up Box S3 works very differently compared to a phono preamplifier. The windings ratio of the transformer determines the gain factor. As it works completely passive and no external power is needed, no extra power can be produced. The increase in voltage is achieved by a coresponding decrease is current. As there is no amplification, the MC Step Up Box S3 has a remarkable noise performance and a very low level of distortion. The sound with a Step-Up Transformer will be more lively, dynamic and natural.
