Clearaudio Smart Test Vinyl

This single vinyl test record optimizes your turntable’s performance by precisely checking rotation speed, channel balance, crosstalk, antiskating settings, and groove modulation accuracy.
This advanced single vinyl test record allows you to quickly and easily fine-tune your turntable to a professional standard. It provides a precise check of consistent rotation speed, left-to-right channel balance, and crosstalk minimization. Additionally, it tests the cartridge's ability to accurately capture even the most intricate groove modulations. Further tests include fine-tuning the antiskating force of the tonearm and assessing the resonance between the tonearm and cartridge. This test record is the perfect tool to ensure your turntable is always in optimal condition, delivering the highest quality sound reproduction from your vinyl collection. Ideal for both fine-tuning and regular maintenance of your hi-fi system, it ensures long-lasting, outstanding performance.
