Congratulations on your purchase! With the Ovation turntable, clearaudio made use of the OSC (Optical-Speed-Control) technology found in the Innovation turntables series by implanting it into a precision milled Panzerholz (bullet proof wood) chassis. This chassis is combined with an anti – resonance mat that is capable of absorbing a huge amount of energy. This is due to the use of more than 100,000 small stainless steel balls which absorb unwanted resonance. Thus, the turntable combines the latest technology and innovation in a classic design, at a perfect price/performance ratio. Please read this user manual carefully so that you can enjoy all the advantages of your Ovation-turntable. All information given will help to generate the best performance and avoid any possible damages.
