Description
The BIC 940 represents the culmination of many years of engineering design effort directed towards the development of a superior manual turntable equipped with automatic, multiple record playing facilities.
It's drive system utilizes a slow speed 24 pole synchronous motor, and belt drive, previously found only in fine manual turntables.
This results in significantly reduced rumble, wow and flutter since idler-pulleys are totally eliminated.
The model 940 maintains precise speed over a wide range of power line voltages, since its motor's rotational rate is determined solely by power line frequency (50 or 60Hz).
The tonearm system features minimal friction bearings, low mass and resonance, stylus force, and tonearm balancing and an isolated counterweight to maintain optimal tracking force from the first to last record played.
Another exclusive feature, a pivotable cartridge shell, permits easy cartridge installation.
