Made to exacting standards the Krown Platter is the result of 5 years of research. At its heart, it is designed to be inert at audio frequency hence it will not ring like a bell. it is a 2 part design precision engineered from extremely Hard 316 Stainless steel to reduce energy absorption from the stylus tip and a specialised High-density alloy to move more mass to the outer edge thus reducing cogging motion and improving flywheel effect of the platter. Each platter weighs 2600 grams + - 1%. The package includes a Vinyl Passion carbon acrylic platter mat and is also available in Epoxy baked Satin Black
