Clearaudio has launched Compass, which is a ready-to-play entry-level turntable featuring a new T1 tonearm, based on their acclaimed Satisfy tonearm. Along with the launch comes a new N1 moving magnet cartridge. This new turntable also features a precision bearing, combined with a specially manufactured platter and sub-platter. The bearing consists of “a polished and tempered steel spindle in a sintered bronze bushing, which runs on a Teflon thrust pad.”
