The great German automatic name, back: a compact fully-automatic deck with a built-in switchable phono stage.
Checked against the manufacturer’s site: 2026-07
Good to know
- Has a built-in phono stage, so it can feed a normal line input on an amplifier or powered speakers without a separate phono box.
- Fully automatic: the arm cues itself and returns at the end of the side.
