MASTER T700 Turntable
Foreword
Analogue music experience
The
STUDIO
MASTER T700 turntable is a high-end turntable with innovative technologies. It is made exclusively from materials
of the highest quality in Germany and distinguishes itself through its clear, elegant and timeless design. It is top of its class and
provides music lovers with an impressive, audiophile music experience. Thanks to the built-in phono preamplifier, the T700 is
compatible with all Revox products - such as Joy S119, Joy S120, and also the M series as well as with products from the past
(Evolution, Emotion, Exception, B series) and can be easily integrated into a Revox Multiroom and Multiuser System. It is also
compatible with other conventional audio products.
Integrated phono preamplifier
A special highlight of the
STUDIO
MASTER T700 is the unique, integrated MC phono preamplifier. The integration of the
preamplifier enables the best and shortest connection between the pick-up and preamplifier and thus leads to the highest
signal quality while preventing interference. For this purpose, the tonearm strand, for instance, is tightly twisted and directly
soldered to the input of the preamplifier. In addition, there is a galvanically separated power supply for the phono preamplifier
and the motor control, which prevents mutual, negative interference.
Electronic speed control
To ensure the best sound quality, absolute speed accuracy is essential. For this purpose, the T700 has a high-precision, quartz-
accurate PLL speed control via a contactless optical sensor. It corrects the deviations (e.g. caused by ambient / temperature
fluctuations, aging of belts and bearings, friction during the scanning process) and ensures compliance with the absolute target
speed with a tolerance of 0.1%. In addition, the belt drive in, conjunction with a high plate mass and an optimally designed plate
bearing, already leads to almost perfect synchronization. The soft start for slow motor start-up guarantees reduced belt wear.
Note on wearing parts
The mechanical and electrical design of the T700 turntable is aimed at providing several years of use and enjoyment of music.
Owing to the principle, however, there are two components, namely the pick-up system including the needle and the drive belt,
which are subject to a certain amount of wear and tear or aging and should be replaced if necessary. Revox recommends
replacing these two components either after 500-800 hours of operation or 4-5 years, whichever comes first.
