The Funk Firm Turntables


The Funk Firm -Funk

 

A right kick up the backside for record decks – There has never been anything like it!

Bold. Refreshing. Its aim is to please us…and if we like it, there’s a fair chance you will too.

Radical looks & unique design developments (pat pend) ensure that your genre of music - Sublime Classical, Rolling Rock and of course Funk - Funk and Funk Vector will not disappoint.

Funk is equipped with:

  • Achroplat(pat pend): Improving on acrylic, it is the perfect Achromatic (non-resonant) support.

  • Inverted Sapphire Bearing. Very hard, very highly polished. Seen in the highest performance decks.

  • DC Motor drive. Low vibration and optimally matched to the platter’s inertia for consistent drive.

  • Sorbothane connected feet to isolate critical midband energy from the outside world.
      

The Funk Firm -Funk Vector

Even more highly specified, Funk V additionally sports:

  • Achroplat V: A precision 0.75º dished platter and gorgeous clamp to optimise disc contact.

  • Vector drive (pat pend): Simply “State of the Art”…for any turntable. Conventionally, a belt yanks at the bearing / platter. As the platter rotates this continually causes bearing judder, seriously degrading low frequency resolution. To balance and linearise the drive to bearing and platter, Vector uses an asymmetric triple pulley arrangement. Permitting a faster servo loop, the motor now has less work to do and so gets on better with its job of smoothly turning the platter. All this is of little use unless it actually benefits us in listening. Well with noticeably enhanced low level, low frequency resolution, Funk V is clearly a superbly engineered Giant Killer of a design!

  • Funk V is finished in a sumptuous lacquered Metallic Burgundy paint floating on crystal clear feet.

 

Funk / Funk V are cut for Rega/Moth RB 250 or 300 arms. Overcoming a major limitation of the Rega/Moth, there is now a simple VTA  adjusting accessory to facilitate use of these arms.
