Nottingham Analogue Deco Turntable

The 60kg Deco is the ultimate Nottingham Analogue turntable, a design where budgetary constraints were removed, resulting in a no compromise deck of superlative quality. Every aspect of the deck, from each material choice, the way each surface interacts and damps with its neighbour to its size and shape was chosen to balance or prevent resonance. Just looking at the curved sides of the platter, chosen to reduce resonance's at any particular frequency shows the levels of care and attention invested in this deck. Unusually for a modern Nottingham Analogue turntable it has suspension that can be activated or bypassed, depending upon the owners situation and preference. 


The Deco is a strictly limited edition, price is available on application but will be over £20,000 for all versions, excluding tonearm. Custom finishes can be discussed as required.

As is normal with Nottingham Analogue turntables you push to start them, with the motor intentionally only just powerful enough to maintain the platters momentum which means vibration from the AC motors cogging is kept to a minimum (reduced even further here by the very high mass motor housing). Speed change is manual by moving the belt on the pulley. It comes with a separate power supply which does include a fine speed adjustment.


No lid is included, but a blank 'LP' is included to keep the platter dust free when not in use.

Almost any arm can be accommodated, with armboards made to order (Rega, Linn, SME - you name it!), including arms up to 12" long. Even a second arm can be added at a later date, this goes in the rear left corner. The most popular arms on these decks are the hugely underrated models from Nottingham Analogue (the AceAnna being especially ideal).


Like all Nottingham Analogue turntables this is a very low maintenance deck, there's no suspension to adjust or wear out, no belt to replace (it should last indefinitely) and apart from the very occasional oil top up or change, and naturally a cartridge/stylus change there's nothing else to worry about.


They come with decent instructions, so are relatively easy to assemble for anyone with some turntable experience, but naturally we are always happy to set them up for you (once built they will transport well in a car, but not via a courier), there is not a charge for this if we're supplying the tonearm too.
