Performance DC with Clarify tonearm and Virtuoso V2 cartridge
Note: This offer is for a used device. The device may have minor scratches on the surface, but this does not affect its functionality – it is in perfect sound and technical condition.
The elegant yet simple appearance of the Performance DC, with its clean lines, matches its excellent sound characteristics.
A newly developed DC motor with precision plain bearings and belt drive, in conjunction with a 40 mm thick polyoxymethylene (POM) platter resting on a Clearaudio ceramic magnetic bearing (CMB), creates optimal conditions for interference-free tracking of the record groove. For further resonance optimization, Clearaudio offers the Performance DC Wood turntable.
Combinations
The combination of the Performance DC or Performance DC Wood turntable with the proven SATISFY KARDAN ALUMINIUM tonearm and the outstanding TALISMANN V2 GOLD MC cartridge delivers the best in moving coil (MC) playback. The fusion of the award-winning TT5 tangential tonearm, the meticulously selected essence mc cartridge, and a Performance DC or Performance DC Wood turntable is an unparalleled sonic symbiosis for the ultimate analog listening experience.
Excellent tracking characteristics and hyper-precise speed stability ensure the ultimate musical enjoyment with all Clearaudio Performance DC combinations. Create your own Performance DC system.

Clearaudio Clarify
If mechanical parts don't touch, there can be no friction. The Clarify tonearm is completely magnetically supported and therefore absolutely friction-free.
The Clarify achieves its maximum performance potential and richest sound when combined with the newly developed OVATION turntable and moving-coil cartridges. Furthermore, the Clarify is compatible with virtually all adjustable cartridges weighing between 2.5 and 19 grams.

Clearaudio Virtuoso V2
The moving magnet cartridges are measured, analyzed, and hand-selected multiple times across four levels. This process allows Clearaudio to achieve perfect homogeneity of the stereo channels and minimal phase and transient distortion. The result, with a linear frequency response and high output voltage, is a superlative audiophile sound – spacious, detailed, and rich in color, yet simultaneously homogeneous and profound; with bass that doesn't boom and treble that is completely free of harshness.
The models in the clearaudio MM-V2 series deliver impressive sound on all common tonearms.
Except for the concept MM V2, which is made of aluminum, the housing of all cartridges in this series is made of hand-polished ebony. This also results in record-breakingly low weights.
