SANSUI SR-222 TURNTABLE

### Sansui SR-222 – Classic Japanese Turntable with Authentic Vintage Character
Available is the **Sansui SR-222**, an authentic vintage Japanese turntable that exudes the aesthetics and philosophy of Hi-Fi from another era.
The SR-222 is a **manual belt-drive turntable**, designed with an emphasis on simplicity, proper mechanical operation, and the essence of analog reproduction. A turntable without unnecessary features and gimmicks, but with that characteristic sturdiness and build quality found in Japanese machines from the golden age of Hi-Fi.
One of the elements that give it a distinctive appearance is the **classic wooden plinth**, which further enhances its vintage character. The wooden base, combined with the metal platter and its clean lines, creates a particularly beautiful presence that fits perfectly in a vintage or classic Hi-Fi setup.
The turntable operates at **33⅓ and 45 RPM** and features belt-drive transmission, with a four-pole synchronous motor and a large **300 mm die-cast aluminum platter**. The system is designed for stable rotation of the disc and the best possible isolation from unwanted vibrations.
It also features an **S-shaped static-balanced tonearm**, with adjustable tracking and anti-skating, as well as a detachable headshell, offering flexibility in head selection and placement.
The SR-222 is a turntable that does not try to impress with a multitude of functions. Its charm lies precisely in its **simplicity, build quality, and authentic vintage aesthetic**.
It is one of those machines that perfectly fits the vinyl experience: you place the disc on the large aluminum platter, select the speed, carefully lift the tonearm, and let the music take you away. 🎶
Its **wooden plinth** adds that special feel that is hard to find in modern turntables, making it not just a piece of Hi-Fi but also a **beautiful vintage object** that can stand with character in any living room or dedicated listening room.
For the analog sound enthusiast, the Sansui SR-222 is a very interesting choice: an authentic **Japanese vintage turntable**, with classic construction, wooden base, mechanical simplicity, and the unique aesthetics of the era.
