Overview and
Introduction
The dps turntable is manufactured in Germany by Bauer Audio, with distribution in North America handled by Ayre. The unique design of the dps turntable design offers a compelling combination of high performance, ease of use, and an elegant appearance.
One key feature of the dps turntable’s design is the use of a precision, high-torque 3-phase synchronous motor. The platter itself is of relatively low mass, and the proprietary zero-clearance main bearing creates a constant load on the motor. This allows the motor to precisely control the speed of the record.
The Ayre 3-Phase Power Supply is designed exclusively for the dps turntable and supplies an ultra-low distortion, analog-generated sine wave to each of the motor’s three windings via three zero-feedback power amplifiers. The turntable’s speed may be electronically selected between 33-1/3rpm and 45 rpm with the front panel button.
