TN-280BT-A3: A wireless turntable for new way of enjoying vinyl records
The TN-280BT-A3 is not only a great-sounding turntable for music enthusiastic who want to enjoy vinyl record from closet or re-issues. It brings you a totally new way of listening to vinyl records with its Bluetooth® capability. No extra cost for hi-fi components or complicated wiring is required. Only Bluetooth® speakers or headphones you might have for iPhones are required to enjoy the world of vinyl records.

The TN-280BT-A3 also accommodates a built-in Phono EQ amplifier that provides Line output, and allows you to connect to almost any sound system regardless type of inputs.

The belt-drive motor on the TN-280BT-A3 reduces vibration for sweeter, more accurate sound than direct-drive turntables for DJ, while an aluminum die-cast platter and anti-skating system provide a solid foundation for great-sounding playback. The high-performance, upgradable MM cartridge AT3600L from audio-technica captures every detail on your record, and the static-balanced straight tone-arm ensures clear sound. It’s all housed in a handsome case in black or walnut veneer.

For music enthusiasts who want to hear every sensuous note of their vinyl collection.

Built-in Bluetooth® transmitter
The TN-280BT-A3 delivers the sound wirelessly via built-in Bluetooth® transmitter, in addition to conventional RCA output in analog Line or Phono format. The pairing button is located at the right-front side of the cabinet, and pairing indicator tells you the speakers/headphone is successfully connected.

A new way of record playing
Unlike other turntable units, the TN-280BT-A3 provides you the simplest way of listening to vinyl records via Bluetooth® wireless technology.

If you already have a Bluetooth-enable speakers or headphone for your iPhone/Android phone, all you have to do is to install the TN-280BT-A3 in your room – no pricy hi-fi system and complicated wiring are required –. The connection is as simple as ABC, just press the BT pairing button when the Bluetooth® speakers/headphones are ready to the pairing, and once the connection is established, you don’t need to repeat the same process every time you listening to vinyl records.

The TN-280BT-A3 also provides conventional ways of connection to hi-fi system with or without PHONO input via cable, and an RCA audio cable comes with the TN-280BT-A3.

An authentic 2-speed Turntable
The high inertia Aluminum die-cast platter is driven by a high torque DC motor for stable rotation for both 33-⅓ and 45 rpm. A soft felt mat further reduces vibration effectively. The high accuracy of the spindle is maintained by a polished Stainless steel Spindle and highly durable bronze spindle holder.

High-density MDF cabinet construction
Unlike other with plastic chassis, the heavy MDF cabinet minimizes vibrations and resonance for clearer sound when you playback your vinyl collection.

Built-in MM-type Phono EQ amplifier
Enjoy vinyl playback with any amplifier. The TN-280BT-A3 supports both Phono and Line outputs that allow you to enjoy vinyl records with or without phono equalizer.

VM-type cartridge pre-installed for quick start
A straight tone-arm is employed for high tracking accuracy. The anti-skating mechanism also ensures accurate tracking of vinyl records. An VM-type (equivalent to MM-type) cartridge Audio-Technica AT3600L is installed at the factory

Anti-skating adjustment for accurate tracking
Same as upper models, the TN-280BT-A3’s anti-skating mechanism ensures accurate tracking.
