Auris Blues Turntable – Rustic Walnut / W10A Tonearm

Here we have a nice simple but slightly more upmarket turntable from relatively new company Auris. Our example of the Blues is in very good condition and is fitted with the W-10a Tonearm an upgrade from the standard T809 normally fitted. All original packaging is included as is our usual three month warranty. There is no cartridge fitted to the unit and we would be more than happy to help with advice on suitable alternatives. Please note there are no hinges fitted to the deck for the lid.
Auris Audio Say….
Introducing the Blues Turntable: Uncompromising Performance and Precision
Discover the power of precision and the art of sonic excellence with the Blues turntable from Auris. From the meticulously engineered sub platter and bearing housing to the thoughtfully designed isolation system, every detail has been carefully crafted to provide you with an extraordinary listening experience. Elevate your passion for music to new heights and let the Blues transport you into a world of unparalleled audio fidelity.
We know that stability and vibration reduction are paramount for a pristine listening experience. The Blues features a special rubber compound that not only provides stability but also effectively reduces vibrations. Additionally, the height adjustment capability allows you to bring the plinth into a perfectly horizontal position, further enhancing stability and eliminating unwanted disturbances. Immerse yourself in your music without any distractions, as the Blues creates an environment that allows every note to shine with unparalleled clarity and purity.
The Blues turntable is equipped with a powerful synchronous motor featuring electronic control on the PCB. This advanced motor technology not only reduces vibrations but also maintains a constant speed regardless of voltage changes in the electrical network. This means that you can enjoy a stable and consistent audio performance, ensuring that every note is faithfully reproduced. For even more precise speed control, you have the option to enhance your Auris turntable with the EON PSU (sold separately). This addition further elevates the accuracy of speed control, regardless of whether you’re playing records at 33.3 or 45 RPM.
At the heart of the Blues’ remarkable performance lies its cutting-edge sub platter design, featuring a substantial 10mm shaft that delivers extraordinary inertia, effectively eradicating wow and flutter. Get ready to be completely immersed in the most pristine rendition of your cherished music, as vibrations are meticulously minimized, ensuring audio reproduction that is consistently faithful and exquisitely precise.
The sub platter’s plate, resting gracefully on precision ball bearings, is expertly crafted from cemented carbide metal, boasting an exceptional hardness rating of up to 90 on the Rockwell scale. This unparalleled hardness not only fortifies the turntable’s stability but also ensures its long-term durability, contributing significantly to an unparalleled listening experience that will stand the test of time.
At Auris, we understand the importance of durability and reliability in a turntable. That’s why the Blues incorporates a bronze main hub central bearing in its design. This choice of material offers exceptional service life, surpassing traditional brass alternatives. By reducing stress on the bearing itself, we ensure optimal performance and longevity, allowing you to enjoy your music collection for years to come.
