Sol TT

About the Sol TT

The Schiit SOL TT is a meticulously engineered audiophile turntable designed for serious vinyl enthusiasts. It features a unique unconstrained unipivot tonearm made of carbon fiber with an effective length of 11", providing superior tracking accuracy compared to typical entry-level turntables. The tonearm includes adjustable cartridge angle, anti-skate, fast swap capability, and on-the-fly adjustable vertical tracking angle (VTA). The turntable uses a belt drive system with a heavy 3 lb, 11.75" diameter aluminum alloy diecast platter supported by a large inverted bearing with Igus polymer bushings for smooth rotation and low noise. The motor is housed in a separate Sorbothane-isolated pod to minimize vibration transfer to the platter. It supports 33 and 45 rpm speeds selectable via pulley size. The SOL TT comes pre-installed with an Audio-Technica AT95EN cartridge and features a solid metal tripod plinth for rigidity and minimal resonance. Additional features include a non-damped cam-type cueing lever, RCA outputs with ground lug, and a 16VAC power supply. The design emphasizes performance and tweakability, making it suitable for audiophiles willing to invest time in setup and adjustment. The SOL TT is praised for its build quality, soundstage, and dynamic performance, though it requires careful setup and is not recommended for casual or rough environments due to the delicate unipivot arm design.
