MIRACORD 80

Elegant design crafted from high-quality materials

The Miracord 80 turntable features a combination of milled solid wood components and modern accents. The chassis is available in either glossy black or with a walnut real wood veneer, complemented by brushed, anodized aluminum panels. This design not only provides a sophisticated look but also forms the low-resonance base for the entire system.

Maximum smoothness due to heavy mass

The main feature of the turntable is its mass drive. The 5.6 kg, 30 mm thick aluminum platter provides the necessary inertia for stable speed. This is supported by a servo-controlled DC motor with optically controlled speed regulation and a PID controller that immediately compensates for the smallest fluctuations.

Precise scanning with carbon fiber technology

The integrated 10-inch tonearm is made of ultra-stiff carbon fiber material and features a gimbal bearing. The special geometry minimizes the inherent tracking angle error, leading to lower distortion and precise stereo imaging. Thanks to the screw-on headshell, the system remains flexible for changing cartridges.

Effective decoupling and flexible options

The belt drive ensures mechanical decoupling between the motor and the platter, minimizing disruptive vibrations. For users who wish to further enhance the sound experience, the Miracord 80 offers a special connection for external upgrade power supplies.


Cartridge D96

Precise scanning for first-class vinyl enjoyment

The Miracord D96 serves as the link between the record and the audio system and is responsible for converting the fine nuances of the grooves into electrical signals. It was designed to enable authentic playback with high detail.

Optimized for Elac Miracord and beyond

Specifically developed for the Elac Miracord 60 and 80 models, this cartridge guarantees a perfect match within the Miracord series. Thanks to its standard mounting options, it is not limited to these devices but can be flexibly mounted on many turntables from other brands.

Rich detail through elliptical stylus

The stylus features an elliptical cut that penetrates deeper and more precisely into the record groove than conventional cuts. The result is scanning with minimized distortion and an impressive wealth of sonic details.

Stability and longevity

An aluminum cantilever forms the backbone of the system. This material combines lightness with the necessary rigidity to precisely transmit the movements of the stylus. In addition, the two-year warranty underscores the quality standard of this HiFi component developed in Germany.
