Sophisticated Sound at a Down-To-Earth Price
You don't have to pay a lot to get a true audiophile experience with your vinyl. Far from it! Enjoy sophisticated sound at a down-to-earth price with the Music Hall MMF-Mark-1 turntable.
Music Hall founder Roy Hall is known worldwide as a lifelong LP booster passionately devoted to making quality 'tables affordable. Roy’s signature sound can be heard in the entire Music Hall range, and the Mark-1 is no exception!
"It's a fine-looking unit, it’s simple to unpack and set up, and it plays discs well. Considering the price, how can you go wrong?" asks Thom Moon in his soundstageaccess.com review for September 15, 2023.
All-New, High-Value Tonearm
Featuring an all-new, high-value tonearm design, the Mark-1 delivers exceptional rigidity and internal damping, with a precision aluminum headshell, CNC-machined tonearm flange, and fully adjustable VTA - a feature almost never seen in this price-range. The magnetic anti-skating feature and factory-set pre-adjusted and fixed counterweight make setup a breeze.
Ortofon OM 5E Cartridge Included
The Music Hall Mark-1 also boasts a high-quality, super-fast, and dynamic low-mass Ortofon OM 5E cartridge, perfectly matched to the characteristics of the tonearm. It creates a beautiful, full-bodied sound that until now has been impossible to achieve in a budget turntable.
The OM 5E features elliptical stylus that provides balanced and distortion-free playback. Elliptical diamonds are able to follow the groove oscillations more accurately than spherical diamonds due to their contoured shape. This results in better tracking and less distortion.
Working together, the Mark-1 and the OM 5E prove that you can enjoy premium audio performance without compromise. And without breaking the bank. The OM 5E comes properly aligned and mounted, making set-up incredibly easy right out of the box.
Low Noise, Belt-Drive Design
The Mark-1's low noise, belt-drive design uses an AC synchronous motor for superior speed stability at both 33-1/3 rpm and 45 rpm. The precision stainless steel main bearing is sheathed in Teflon® for noise-free fluid operation. Special vibration-damping adjustable feet provide isolation and make leveling a cinch.
Includes Dust Cover and More
Included accessories consist of an audio cable (stereo RCA), power supply, dust cover, and 45 rpm adaptor.
