Esoteric Grandioso T1: Precision Redefined in Analog Playback

The Esoteric Grandioso T1 Turntable celebrates Esoteric’s 35th anniversary with an exceptional blend of innovation and craftsmanship. Designed for audiophiles, the T1 introduces the groundbreaking “Esoteric MagneDrive System,” a contact-free magnetic drive that ensures incredibly smooth and precise platter rotation, elevating analog playback to new heights.

Key Features

  • Esoteric MagneDrive System: A contact-free drive mechanism that synchronizes the rotations of a magnetic driver and platter, achieving precision and silent operation.
  • Magne-Float Platter: Reduces the effective platter mass from 19kg to approximately 4kg, enhancing rotational stability and reducing friction on the spindle bearing.
  • Three-Piece Independent Chassis: Separates main, motor, and power supply units to minimize vibration and interference, enhancing sound purity.
  • VCXO Motor Driver: Maintains consistent platter rotation for accurate playback.
  • 10MHz Clock Sync Capability: Compatible with the Grandioso G1X Master Clock, allowing enhanced synchronization for optimal performance.
  • Inverted Bearing System: Supports smooth platter rotation, reducing mechanical noise and wear.
  • Micrometer Knob: A front panel adjustment for fine-tuning magnetic force between the driver and platter, allowing sonic customization.
  • Triple-Layer Chassis: Made from aluminum and wood with a high-gloss piano lacquer finish for aesthetics and vibration control.
  • Isolation Feet: Designed with a special damping mechanism to eliminate external vibrations and ensure pure sound reproduction.
  • Adjustable Speed Control: Offers two-speed operation (33/45 rpm) with 0.1% incremental adjustments for precise playback.

The Grandioso T1 redefines analog playback, combining innovative technology with exquisite design to deliver unparalleled precision and clarity in vinyl reproduction.
