ℹ Product Information

The Zavfino ZV8-X turntable was designed and engineered using proven engineering techniques to eliminate resonance and standing wave vibration.

The plinth’s unique cut-away shape, sharp curves and untraditional angles are all done in the name of vibration elimination. This, paired with mixing other materials such as POM, brass, Teflon, and an acrylic platter, effectively deadens the plinth so it doesn’t carry or amplify an unwanted vibration to the cartridge.

With the Zavfino ZV8-X  the same philosophy goes to great lengths to eliminate vibrations. The first step is the solid billet aircraft-grade aluminium milled with a diamond-tipped milling blade, with the result being a super fine grid-free finish that will pick up resonance. Secondly, the underside of the platter is contoured and machined on a gradient again to dissipate vibrations.

The platter is isolated and bearing from the plinth using a 15mm acrylic cuff which the bearing effectively sits on so it has no direct contact with the plinth. This combination of processes allows the use of the Zavfino ZV8-X with or without a rubber mat and gives them the option to use other options other than rubber with the aluminium platter.

The Zavfino ZV8-X comes standard with a combination of choices using the Zavfino Aeshna series aluminium and carbon tonearms and an optional adaptor for a second Zavfino Aeshna arm or can provide fittings for other premium tonearms and vintage arms up to 9.5-12 inches. It would be best to contact us for advice on individual setups and cartridge recommendations.

The Zavfino ZV8-X also comes standard with a fully independent motor supply in a 2kg aluminium housing regulated by an AC regenerating circuit, which allows for a perfect AC current that can be slightly adjusted at 33.3 and 45rpm.
