Details

Smooth vinyl precision.

ELAC’s Miracord 50 Turntable is designed to deliver exceptional vinyl transcription, inspired by the iconic Miracord name from the Golden Age of Stereo, when turntables reigned supreme. The Miracord 50 is carefully engineered with a belt-drive motor and die-cast aluminum platter. A precision static balanced, straight-tube tonearm with removable headshell features a factory-mounted MM phono cartridge. Designed with convenience in mind, the Miracord 50 is equipped with a built-in defeatable phono preamplifier, allowing you to add this turntable to virtually any music system.

 

The warmth of analog sound.

The resurgence of vinyl has created a groundswell of enthusiasm among audiophiles and music enthusiasts who have never before enjoyed the thrill of spinning an LP! The Miracord 50 is the perfect choice for those building a new LP collection, or for rediscovering the magic of an existing record library.

 

Anti-resonant Chassis

Superior isolation is achieved with a chassis designed to minimize the sonic effects of vibration and feedback. A low-noise DC servo motor drives a die-cast, high-inertia aluminum platter with special record mat via a rubber belt, resulting in stable speed and minimal wow and flutter.

 

Precision Tonearm and Cartridge

The tonearm is a static-balance, straight-tube design with precision bearings, built-in anti-skate adjustment and removable bayonet-style headshell. A premounted moving-magnet cartridge takes all the guesswork out of setup and assures proper vertical tracking angle, tracking weight and azimuth adjustment right out of the box.

 

Built-in Phono Equalizer

AmplifierUnlike most turntables, the Miracord 50 comes complete with a built-in defeatable phono preamp for correct RIAA equalization. That means you can add LP playback without having to add a costly phono stage to line-level preamps or digital-only systems. Just plug it in, put on a record and enjoy rich LP sound!

 

Contemporary Finish

Styled to complement any interior, the Miracord 50 is available with a silver chassis and gloss-black plinth. A hinged, tinted dustcover is included.
