| The ELP Laser Turntable |
| Imagine playing your records with the sound quality of
the original recordingsound, but
with all the features of a modern CD player. After $20 Million of development
costs, the LT-2XRC Laser Turntable plays LPs, singles and 78s to audiophile
quality with remote control and CD features such as track selection, pause fast
forward and rewind. With no physical contact with the record, the
Laser turntable offers zero record wear, no rumble or background noise of any
kind, no cartridge induced resonances or frequency response anomalies, perfect
channel separation, zero tracking errors, no inner groove distortion and no
skating or jumping. User adjustable laser-reading height allows the laser to
read the grooves of old records, at a height where the stylus has caused least
wear. By scanning below the surface, scratches are inaudible and even broken
records can be played, if you need to transcribe those old 78s! Remarkably
despite using laser technology, the Laser Turntable retains the purity of being an
analogue device and outputs a MM level Phono signal, with a frequency
response of 10 Hz- 25 kHz. |

| Key Benefits |
- Perfect Stereo Separation. It reads each channel with a separate laser
beam
with no cross talk or print through.
- An incredible sound stage even on mono records.
- Extracts everything that was put on the record at the production stage, and
reveals just how good that process really was even fifty years ago!

 Hi-Fi World October 2004:
David Price says "Retailing at just over £10,000* ELP's LT-2XRC
is the most remarkable analogue turntable we've ever seen, not
least because it uses a five-laser pickup to read the disc,
CD-style, instead of a conventional arm and cartridge!"
* The price has been reduced since this review.
