About the 30 Diamond
The SME 30 Diamond Series turntable celebrates SME's 75th anniversary, evolving from the acclaimed Model 30 flagship. It showcases definitive precision machining, sharp lines, and hand-finished details with black chrome highlights, embodying SME's craftsmanship. Weighing over 42kg, it excels in controlling vibration, resonance, and energy through heavy mass construction, extensional damping, and a suspended sub-chassis on 60 purpose-made suspension rings. The 7.5kg aluminum alloy platter (330mm diameter) features a diamond-turned iso-damp mat and reflex record clamp. Powered by a DSP-driven speed control unit for 33.33/45 rpm (with fine +/-0.01% adjustments), it includes the SME Series V tonearm with Crystal Cable wiring. Available in Model 30/2 (9-inch arm) and Model 30/12 (12-inch arm for enhanced performance).
