diophiles have a winner in the new Sansui SR>212 automatic-
return turntable. for not only is it made of carefully-chosen
precision components but it has been designed with particular
emphasis on ease of operation reliability and tonal quality. Among
its multitude of features are a stable synchronous motor, full-sized
aluminum alloy die-cast platter, elaborate. statically-balanced S-
shaped tubular tonearm with skating force canceller. quality
IM cartridge? gold-plated connector terminal pins, multiple sus-

pensuon/insulation system to eliminate howling. and much more,
Additionally, theres a manual tonearm lifter that lets you lift or
lower the tonearm manual/y at any desired point over the record,
independent of the automatic mechanism. On what other medium-
prioed turntable will you find all of these features? None. as far as
we know, Sansui scores again with consumer-oriented quality,
price and convenience.

EASY-TO-OPERATE AUTO-CUT/AUTO-
RETURN MECHANISM

Operating the SR-212 IS easy All you have
to do IS place the tonearm over the record
groove and touch the memo lever The auto-
matic mechanism will take it from there When
the record is finished. the tonearm lifts returns
to its rest and automatically switches off the
power source Likewtse when the memo lever
tS pulled while a record IS being played the
tonearm lifts returns to its rest, and swrtches
oft the power

STABLE. RELIABLE 4-POLE SYNCHRONOUS
MOTOR

The SR-2t2 motor is the 4»pole synchronous
type that maintains accurate speeds (33% and
45mm) constantly to prevent against line volt-
age and load fluctuations. No speed adjust-
ments are necessary Ever

HEAVY BELT-DRIVEN DOUBE-RIM
PLATTER

The beltorive system ensures smooth r0»
tations at all times With a minimum of neise
and rumble Utilizmg a heavy 12-inch aluminum
alloy die-cast platter of the (IOUbIEflm type to
obtain a maxnmum flywheel effect, this system
keeps frictional and rotational parts to a mini-
mum, while insuring against breakdowns

FEATURE-PACKED TONEARM ASSEMBLY

The statically-balanced S-shaped tubular
tonearm. usually found only on expensive turn-
tables offers high sensmwty as a result ol mini-
mized frictional resistance of rotary pans Once
the tonearm is balanced. the required tracking
lorce can be easrly applied by turning and mov-
ing the counterbalance weight to the appropri-
ate marking Thanks to its S-shaped destgn, ODII-
mum lateral balance is always maintained wher~
ever the weight is positioned Use of a skating
force canceller eliminates harmful distortion
often caused by unbalanced stylus pressure
on the walls of a record groove Additionally,
expensrve gold-plated pins on the connection
terminals of the tonearm and headshell prevent
rust while the Viscous-damped manual tonearm
lifter lets you lower or lift the tonearm gently
at arty desired pomt on a record during play-
