Always take care when positioning the device, which, within the possible limits of your listening environments, should be on a solid and
firm board in an area allo wed by air circulation.
-
The turntable is supplied in series with 3 height-adjustable anodised aluminium supports that act as the anti-vibrating feet. By laying the
BELVEDERE on different shelves the sound characteristics may be different. We recommend high mass support boards not affected by
external vibrations trying to choose the best solution, which also fits in with your needs.
-
Before carrying out the installation it will be necessary to level the turntable platter even using a simple sprit level. The 3 feet only
facilitate the positioning and allow the best possible coupling with the supporting board.
-
The belt supplied must be positioned on the external perimeter of the platter. Check that the speed is perfect. Even though Pulleys and
Platters, have a centesimal precision the electrical power supply in your country may have output variations of the AC frequency (50 Hz
or 60 Hz) that slightly alter the rotation speed of the AC synchronous motors. In this case you’d need our adjustable aluminium pulley, or
a controlled external AC power supply (both available in most countries as optional)
N.B.:
The speed variation tolerances, even in the case of your current supplier provides an incorrect frequency, are extremely small, therefore
any variations always constant) would be limited. A frequency computerised generator (optional) or a motor pulley with a variable diameter
(supplied) would be necessary in this case. Less than 2% variations are completely un -hearable by human ears.
Positioning the Belvedere
Your BELVEDERE turntable has been designed for sheltered Hi-Fi systems. It must be protected from any eventual variations in temperature
and humidity. Avoid using in the vicinity of radiators or other strong heat sources, electrical and electronic motors, switched on mobile phones
etc.
The location in proximity of other audio components is not theoretically critical, but you should nevertheless pay attention to this.
The levelling and positioning on a solid, firm board, as explained in the pr evious chapter, are fundamental elements to ensure the maximum
sonic performances.
