Radius5
Turntable
Available in transparent acrylic, lacquered walnut veneer and lacquered maple
veneer the Radius5 borrows elements and technology from Roksan's world-class
record players to combine innovation and practicality in this stunning piece
of design.
Radius5's drive mechanism utilises a custom made synchronous motor fitted
with a precision-machined solid aluminium alloy pulley. The main bearing
housing and spindle are designed and high precision machined from solid brass
and stainless steel alloy to ensure smooth running and longevity.
The single piece solid acrylic platter is precision machined to ensure speed
stability and then frost finished for smart aesthetic appearance. The Main
Bearing, Platter and Nima arm are mounted on the sub-plinth and three point
de-coupled from the main plinth. The motor assembly, also mounted to the main
plinth, is further de-coupled to avoid motor noise and vibration break
through. The sub-plinth thus isolates the cartridge/record interface and
preserves detail, timing and dynamics.
Three chromed adjustable spiked feet assist levelling and optimum coupling to
the surface upon which the Radius5 rests. Matched to the NIMA arm, Radius5
provides unparalleled performance demonstrating a perfect balance between
design, technology and value. Its superior resolution and composure extracts
plenty of detail in a well-organised, crisp and informative manner.
