Adjusting the Internal Suspended Chassis Height
The Helix Two turntable contains a MinusK Negative Stiffness Mechanism (NSM) which is hidden inside the
table chassis. This is a state-of-the-art mechanical resonance isolation device that is integral to the turntable’s
performance.
With the tonearm and cartridge mounted on the table, place a record on the platter and the clamp to achieve
play back weight. Adjust the large thumbwheel on the left-hand side of the top of the table by scrolling the
wheel toward you to raise, or by scrolling the wheel away from you to lower until the platter is floating
between the upper most and lower most travel limits of the suspension (approx. ±5mm). This is the required
‘floating’ position for record playback.
A small LED Height Indicator light is displayed in the front panel. The light should sit near the middle of the slot
when viewed from the front of the table. The light will move up and down as the suspension travel operates.
Adjust the thumbwheel only if the travel of the suspension is at the top or bottom of the travel limit when
table is at rest. The total suspension travel available is approximately 10mm in total (approx. ±5mm).
If you depress the platter to the lowest limit of the suspension travel, you may hear a gentle ‘clunk’ sound.
This is nothing to be concerned about and is simply an indication that the suspension has reached the limit of
its downward travel range.
