Step-Up Turntable Rivaling Far More Expensive Tables
The sexy new Music Hall MMF-1.5 sets the gold standard in performance and affordability with a classic look. Music Hall made a significant number of improvements to the entry-level MMF-1.3 in the development of the 1.5 that together add up to a huge improvement in sound. The enhancements included an improved plinth, platter, tonearm, and cartridge. Drop a piece of vinyl on the 1.5 and discover how truly good it sounds.
It's easy to see how good it looks. The MMF-1.5 goes way beyond its highly affordable price point with a gorgeous cherry wood veneered plinth. It looks and feels like a million bucks, but costs considerably less.
Three Speeds to Play ALL Your Records
The MMF-1.5 doesn't just do a great job with your LPs. It plays ALL of your records, including those golden oldies from bygone eras. A built-in electronic speed control circuit ensures the electronic accuracy of the MMF-1.5’s three speeds, while testifying to the separately isolated DC synchronous motor, which provides superior speed stability. A simple twist of a knob lets you choose 33-1/3 rpm, 45 rpm, or 78 rpm playback speed. A special mat – which rests upon an aircraft-grade aluminum platter – dampens ambient vibration to make all of your music sound the best that it can sound.
Built-in Phono Preamp
Most turntable require that you plug them into a dedicated 'Phono' input on your preamp, integrated amp, or receiver. However, the majority of preamps, integrated amps, and receivers don't have a dedicated 'Phono' input. So with most other turntables, you need to have your own phono preamplifier to plug your turntable into, and then you plug the preamp into your other gear. The MMF-1.5 saves you that expense and hassle by incorporating a built-in phono preamp. This lets you plug it directly into any standard line-level input on your preamp, integrated amp, or receiver. That's all there is to it.
Well, not quite all. One cool feature of the MMF-1.5 is that you can bypass the preamp. So if you happen to have a dedicated phono preamp on hand that you would like to use instead, be Music Hall's guest. It's also a nice feature in case your amp or preamp already has a dedicated 'phono' input.
Simple Set-up!
The MMF-1.5 isn't one of those turntables that takes a long time to set up before you can start listening to music. On the contrary, it's nearly ready to go right out of the box, needing only a few adjustments to get you off and running. The belt comes pre-mounted to the platter, making installation a snap.
Includes Music Hall Melody Cartridge
A high quality Music Hall Melody cartridge is pre-mounted and precision-aligned. It's a nice sounding $75 moving magnet cartridge with a diamond stylus, and it works beautifully with the MMF-1.5's superior 9" S-shaped alloy tonearm with removable headshell for easy cartridge changing.
Hinged Dust Cover Included
A clean turntable is a happy turntable, so Music Hall goes the extra mile with the MMF-1.5. A hinged dust cover keeps your MMF-1.5 protected from dust, dirt, and other airborne debris when not in use.
Also included are vibration damping feet and removable RCA cables for connection to your preamp, receiver, or integrated amp plus a special vibration-damping platter matt.
