After eighteen years of turntable manufacturing for analog lovers on a budget, we’re delighted to announce our first deck not subscribed to budgetary limitations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlready, the critically acclaimed 6perspeX has proved the fantastic result of using magnets to isolate the subchassis. So consequently, for the Xtension this technology has been re-developed to utilise new magnetic feet, which almost completely decouple the main plinth. With these two magnets located in the feet, the turntable is practically floating. Combine this with the weighty 25 kg total mass of the turntable, and the listener benefits from minimal base resonance. This is a unique combination of ‘mass loaded’ and ‘floating turntable’ design principals.In keeping with these principles, the platter is metal due to its high mass. The old standard adoption of pure metal has been abandoned because of its highly-resonant tendencies. Instead, we’ve found a perfect alloy which we dampened on the inner side with Sorbothane®. Taking this base, we’ve glued recycled Vinyl records to the top (which act as a perfect mat) and bake this ‘sandwich’ before precision balancing it. The final product subsequently benefits from a wonderfully resonance-free, heavy platter. Another consideration was the amount of energy the tonearm base would have to take from arm and cartridge movement. These energies have to be controlled, as do those from the motor and the bearing (they have to be kept away from the tonearm to avoid interference). Consequently, the tonearm base on the Xtension 12 Evolution also benefits from ‘high-mass’ technologies, and is isolated from the main board by a sheet of Sorbothane®. Importantly though, this board is still able to incorporate the adoption of different tonearms. As we originally premised with this turntable, to be in keeping with its ‘classic’ ethos, the Xtension comes with a beautiful dustcover with adjustable hinges\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIn the box:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eXtension 12 Evolution\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConnect it 5P-C RCA Cable\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDust cover\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAdapter for 7“ singles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRecord puck\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePower supply, allen key, spirit level, gloves\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUpgrade your standard RCA cable that ships with this turntable with a balanced cable:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/yorkshireav.co.uk\/products\/pro-ject-audio-true-balanced-connect-it-phono-ds-cable\" data-mce-href=\"https:\/\/yorkshireav.co.uk\/products\/pro-ject-audio-true-balanced-connect-it-phono-ds-cable\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eConnect IT Phono DS cables\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e(silver plated copper, very low capacitance)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eConsider your phono stage too - if you wish to take advantage of the true balanced architecture of your MC cartridge and upgraded cable (see products above), then consider a balanced phono stage:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/yorkshireav.co.uk\/products\/pro-ject-audio-phono-box-ds3-b?_pos=1\u0026amp;_psq=phono+box+ds3\u0026amp;_ss=e\u0026amp;_v=1.0\" data-mce-href=\"https:\/\/yorkshireav.co.uk\/products\/pro-ject-audio-phono-box-ds3-b?_pos=1\u0026amp;_psq=phono+box+ds3\u0026amp;_ss=e\u0026amp;_v=1.0\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePhono Box DS3\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e - audiophile grade, fully balanced circuitry with discrete fully passive RIAA filtering.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/yorkshireav.co.uk\/products\/pro-ject-phono-box-rs2?_pos=1\u0026amp;_psq=phono+box+rs\u0026amp;_ss=e\u0026amp;_v=1.0\u0026amp;variant=39300768202883\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePhono Box \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cb\u003eRS2\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cspan\u003e- ultimate phono preamplifier of the highest class.
