Referencing the ‘Gold Age’ of Hi-Fi, the GT-5000 draws inspiration from Yamaha’s original 'Gigantic and Tremendous' series turntables - characterised by heavy wooden cabinets and platter which served to dampen vibration and deliver improved performance.
GT-5000 Straight, Short Arm for Openness and Transparency in Sound*
GT-5000 Straight, Short Arm for Openness and Transparency in Sound*
• Accurately capturing the audio from the source is the imperative first step in delivering authentic, true, Hi-Fi sound.
• The flagship GT-5000 adopts a short, straight arm designed to deliver superior rigidity as well as balance of weight and mechanics which results in improved traceability.
• A rigid mechanism with simple construction means there is no need for an inside force canceler weight.
GT-5000 Customised Belt-drive for Stabilising Platter*
GT-5000 Customised Belt-drive for Stabilising Platter*
• The customised belt-drive mechanism of the GT-5000 minimises the influence of the motor cogging and excludes feedback control for an open and smooth sound.
• The original GT concept utilised the notion of internal mass to counter feedback control. This is built upon with the GT-5000 which negates feedback control through the belt-drive.
GT-5000 Heavy 5 kg Aluminium Platter*
