The Kuzma Stabi Reference 2 turntable is a high-end vinyl playback system known for its exceptional engineering and performance. 


Key Features


  • Platter Construction: The platter is made from a composite material consisting of aluminum and acrylic, designed for superior rigidity and energy dissipation. It weighs approximately 8 kg and is internally rubber damped.

  • Motor System: Utilizes two AC motors, similar to those used in other high-end turntables, which drive the subplatter via a flat rubber belt. The motors are controlled by a separate electronic power supply.

  • Bearing Type: Features an inverted bearing with a ruby ball, providing smooth rotation and minimal friction.

  • Speeds: Supports both 33.3 rpm and 45 rpm playback speeds with fine speed adjustments available via the power supply.

  • Chassis and Suspension: The turntable features a suspended sub-chassis supported on four sprung isolators, which are easily adjustable from above. The suspension is tuned to a low frequency of 2.2 Hz to optimize isolation without interfering with record playback.

  • Tonearm Compatibility: Designed to accommodate a single tonearm, though additional armboards can be installed for multiple tonearm configurations.

  • Dimensions and Weight: Measures 500 mm (W) x 400 mm (D) x 200 mm (H) and weighs approximately 40 kg.

  • Options: Includes options for an external power supply, armboards, and a clamp.
