{"product_id":"argon-audio-tt-signature-plattenspieler-dark-cherry-stueck","title":"Argon Audio TT Signature Turntable, Dark Cherry (Each)","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Argon Audio TT Signature is the flagship of the series: a pre-fitted Ortofon 2M Black, a direct-wired carbon tonearm and a sprung chassis (\"Floating Plinth\") set it apart from the regular TT models. The Dark Cherry real-wood veneer gives the turntable a warm, almost classic look – noticeably darker and richer than the lighter Walnut veneer of its sister variant.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy the TT Signature?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe photo-sensor-controlled motor keeps speed especially stable – with ≤0.04% wow and flutter, the TT Signature achieves the best figure in the whole Argon TT range. The sprung chassis decouples the turntable and tonearm from knocks and footfall, and the direct-wired carbon tonearm minimises solder joints in the signal path. The Ortofon 2M Black is one of the best MM cartridges on the market.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat you hear\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA calm, cleanly controlled sound with a stable soundstage – the sprung chassis keeps footfall and vibration away from the cartridge, and the Ortofon 2M Black delivers resolution and dynamics well above entry level. No speaker boom, no feedback at normal listening volume.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWho is the TT Signature for? (and who it's not for)\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor anyone who deliberately wants a high-quality turntable with a pre-fitted cartridge and already has (or plans to get) an external phono stage or an amplifier with a phono input. Honestly: if you're after Bluetooth, a built-in phono preamp, or the cheapest possible entry-level deck, this isn't it – that's what the smaller Argon TT models are for.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eOur verdict\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe TT Signature in Dark Cherry is visually the warmer, darker alternative to the Walnut version – technically identical, the veneer colour is purely a matter of taste. If you want a turntable with a ready-to-play top MM cartridge and noticeably better build quality than entry-level decks, this is exactly that.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eTechnical Data\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDrive:\u003c\/strong\u003e Belt drive, photo-sensor-controlled motor\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCartridge:\u003c\/strong\u003e Ortofon 2M Black (MM), pre-fitted\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePhono preamp:\u003c\/strong\u003e not built in – external phono input required\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlatter:\u003c\/strong\u003e Die-cast aluminium, 1600 g\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTonearm:\u003c\/strong\u003e Carbon, 8.8\" \/ 15.4 g, direct-wired\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpeeds:\u003c\/strong\u003e 33 \/ 45 rpm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWow and flutter:\u003c\/strong\u003e ≤0.04%\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecial features:\u003c\/strong\u003e Floating-plinth suspension, ATS technology, real-wood Dark Cherry veneer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBluetooth \/ USB:\u003c\/strong\u003e not available\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions (W×D×H):\u003c\/strong\u003e 45 × 36.8 × 15.4 cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 9 kg\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat colours is the TT Signature available in?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe TT Signature comes in two real-wood veneers: this darker Dark Cherry and the lighter \u003ca href=\"\/en\/products\/argon-audio-tt-signature-plattenspieler-nussbaum-stuck\"\u003eWalnut\u003c\/a\u003e.
