Product details

The TN-3B is a stylish, slim turntable with belt drive and a built-in MM-type phono EQ amplifier. It features a new tonearm with a pivot function, developed in collaboration with the high-end tonearm manufacturer SAEC, ensuring maximum stability and resolution. The belt drive helps reduce unwanted cogging effects, such as fine pulsations caused by motor operation, to ensure precise and even record rotation. The TN-3B also utilizes a high-precision NJM808080 operational amplifier in its built-in phono EQ amplifier, allowing users to enjoy the sound of their vinyl records with low distortion and high quality. The TN-3B offers a natural and balanced sound quality and is quick and easy to set up. We believe it sets a new standard that meets the needs of both audiophiles and passionate record collectors.

In collaboration with SAEC Corporation, a world-renowned high-end tonearm manufacturer, the tonearm of the TN-3B features a knife-edge pivot function. Unlike conventional bearings, subtle movements with this tonearm actually contribute to producing a more dynamic sound with excellent resolution. The S-shaped tonearm also uses a universal headshell mount, allowing users to quickly and easily swap cartridges and headshells.

The statically balanced, S-shaped tonearm is equipped with a counterweight for precise adjustment of tracking force, as well as an anti-skating mechanism for accurate setting of stylus pressure, ensuring that vinyl records can be played back accurately. An Audio-Technica AT-VM95E cartridge with an elliptical stylus tip is already pre-installed.

  • PositiveAgile, cleanly made tone arm
  • PositiveUses standard headshells
  • PositiveValuable optics
  • NegativeIntegrated preamplifier sounds a little slim
  • NegativeAudible motor noise in the output signal

The final test with the fine-resolution Denon DL-110 showed us that the Teac arm is indeed good and can also handle somewhat more demanding systems. However, we can only give a clear recommendation to a player for around 500 euros if its motor is largely inaudible in the output signal. And unfortunately, we cannot attest to that in our test sample.
