The Acoustic Signature Final Tool is a high-mass aluminum alloy turntable featuring a thread-drive system and two speeds (33 1/3 and 45 RPM). It weighs just under 75 pounds and is built with a solid aluminum chassis resting on three spikes for stability. The motor is an outboard AC synchronous type housed in a damped aluminum cylinder, powered by an external Alpha power supply that generates its own internal reference frequency for consistent speed control. The 24 lb. aluminum platter is damped and rides on a unique Tidorfolon bearing system, which is maintenance-free and guaranteed for ten years. The turntable supports up to three tonearms with adjustable armboards and offers precise arm height adjustment. Its construction uses a soft aluminum alloy to control resonance, anodized for a brushed finish. The Final Tool is praised for delivering deep bass, excellent rhythm, and a natural, unstressed sound reproduction, making it suitable for a wide range of music styles.
