Precise Vinyl Playback for the Highest Demands

The Miracord 60 was developed to continue the tradition of ELAC turntables and offer demanding listeners accurate music reproduction in a timeless design.

Lightweight Tonearm for Maximum Detail

The gimbal-mounted carbon fiber tonearm is characterized by its extreme rigidity and low weight. This construction minimizes unwanted resonances and allows the tonearm to glide with low friction, preserving the finest musical details.

Solid Construction Against Vibrations

The anti-resonance chassis consists of a 50 mm thick MDF block, which has high internal damping. This is complemented by a 22 mm thick aluminum die-cast platter, whose high mass ensures smooth rotation and effectively suppresses disturbing vibrations.

Intelligent Speed Control

An integrated optical sensor constantly measures the speed of the platter and transmits the data to a microcontroller. This closed-loop control corrects the motor speed up to 500 times per second, minimizing wow and flutter values.

Flexibility in System Selection

Thanks to the interchangeable headshell, the Miracord 60 offers high flexibility in selecting the cartridge system. This allows the device to be individually adapted to sonic preferences.

The Elac Miracord D96 is a precise Moving Magnet (MM) stereo cartridge that, with its elliptical stylus and high-quality aluminum cantilever, ensures a particularly detailed and authentic sound image. Originally developed for the Miracord 60/80 models, it offers excellent performance on numerous turntables thanks to its standard mounting.

Cartridge D96

Precise Scanning for First-Class Vinyl Enjoyment

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

Optimized for Elac Miracord and Beyond

Specifically developed for the Elac Miracord 60 and 80 models, this cartridge guarantees perfect tuning 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 Cut

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 Durability

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 claim of this German-developed HiFi component.
