Elac Miracord 40 – The Easy Entry into Vinyl

The Elac Miracord 40 is an audiophile turntable for those who want to consciously enjoy vinyl records without having to spend a lot of time on complex setup. The tonearm and cartridge are pre-mounted and ready to play from the factory, making the start of your own record collection particularly uncomplicated.

Precise Aluminum Tonearm for Clean Tracking

The precision-machined aluminum tonearm features a high-quality bearing and is designed for low-resonance tracking. The adjustable tracking force and solid brass counterweight allow for precise adjustment to different cartridges. This creates a stable foundation for detailed and musically balanced reproduction.

Audio-Technica MM Cartridge Pre-mounted

The Elac Miracord 40 is equipped with an Audio Technica AT95E Moving Magnet Stereo cartridge. This system is already mounted and properly adjusted. This makes the turntable particularly suitable for getting started with vinyl, while also offering a solid basis for conscious music listening with classic Hi-Fi aspirations.

Integrated Phono Preamplifier for Flexible Use

The integrated MM RIAA phono preamplifier allows for direct connection to amplifiers or active speakers without the need for a separate phono preamp. This makes the Miracord 40 particularly practical when a sleek and uncluttered Hi-Fi solution is desired.

Easy Operation for LPs and Singles

The electronic speed switch makes it easy to switch between classic LPs and singles. A turn of the knob is enough to set the desired speed. This keeps operation pleasantly direct and suitable for everyday use.

Quiet Operation Thanks to Thoughtful Design

The belt drive with electronically controlled DC motor and integrated vibration damping system is designed for quiet, stable operation. Together with the solid platter and rubber mat, unwanted vibrations are reduced. This supports precise and unadulterated music reproduction.

Removable Dust Cover for Everyday Use

The removable dust cover protects the turntable when not in use and functionally complements the high-quality features. This keeps the Miracord 40 pleasantly practical in daily use and prevents it from collecting dust after operation.
