About the AR XA

The AR XA turntable, introduced in 1961, is a classic belt-drive manual turntable known for its low rumble, smooth and accurate speed, and innovative suspension system. It features a spring-suspended subchassis isolating the platter and tonearm from vibrations, a low-speed synchronous motor, and a lightweight two-piece aluminum platter. It was highly regarded for its sound quality and design, earning a place in the Museum of Modern Art and being listed as one of the ten most significant turntables of all time.
