Wilson Benesch Gamme analogique Mode D'emploi page 10

The Full Circle is a tribute to the medium of vinyl and it's
unique position in the music lover's life. It has re-defined
the way that analogue will evolve in the next century and
eloquently re-affirms the long-term viability of the format.
The solution is comprised of three, State of the art
components, the Circle turntable, A.C.T. 0.5 tonearm and
Ply moving coil carbon fibre bodied cartridge. With a set up
time of less than one hour, the complete product requires
no "tuning" and will remain stable and reliable indefinitely.
Wilson Benesch is the world's foremost authority on the use
and function of advanced composite structures when applied
in audio systems. Over ten years of research and development
The Circle
Advanced materials used throughout.

Totally unique design concept.

Low mass design.

Immensely stiff unidirectional carbon fibre rods used in the principle structural components.

High tolerance phosphor bronze plain bearing with tool steel spindle.

lie behind this imaginative and unique product.
The Ply (moving coil cartridge)
 The ply is the perfect starting point for the
circle, complimenting as it does the advance
materials technology used in both the
tonearm and the turntable.
 The Ply is a derivative of the Matrix
cartridge.
 The ply is sold as part of the Full Circle
Package.
 The maintenance costs are excellent.
 The net result is a robust design that
provides no unnecessary frills. What is
achieved is maximum performance at a
highly competitive price.
The A.C.T. 0.5 – tonearm
The A.C.T. 0.5 tonearm is derived from the Wilson Benesch A.C.T. Two. The fundamental design features of the A.C.T. 0.5 tonearm
are exactly the same as the A.C.T. Two. Wilson Benesch tonearms are quite unlike any other tonearm design in every respect.
Torsionally 10 times stiffer than titanium.

Half the mass of aluminium.

5 times the specific stiffness of steel.

Order of magnitude better damping than most

engineering metals.
Unique curved carbon fibre arm tube.

Unique Kinematic bearing.

Exhibits stiction free operation.

Will last indefinitely.
