We officially launched the new Momentus Duo Drive turntable at the Axpona Show June 24th and 25th in New York City with our new dealer TRIODE PICTURE + SOUND. The show was well attended and it was a fun and lively event for all!

NEW Momentus Supreme – 70 lb/14 Layer Platter

Pictured below is Momentus Supreme with Duo-Drive capability (Patent Pending). The world’s only turntable capable of direct rim drive or alternately a tri-belt drive system.

Upgrade your ONYX to a Momentus or Momentus Supreme Pictured below an ONYX to Momentus Upgrade completed for an existing customer: Shown with the new VTA Adjustable Arm Pod

We are happy to announce all ONYX tables can be upgraded to the Momentus Series at the factory. Please inquire (larryd@ljtmfg.com) for details.

Silent Power DC Drive System – DUO-Drive

The DUO Drive System heartbeat is our new Silent Power DC Drive System.

Direct RIM or Belt Drive

The exclusive Acetal Outer Rim Drive and the extreme tolerances required to run the rim drive system easily provided a top flight high tension Belt Drive System. The final selection of belt or rim is a personal choice – you have two drives in one; both more effective than other turntables by design, tolerances and passion.

The new motor is quieter, more powerful and features advanced motion control providing low torque start ups, improved braking and easier set up. The two component motor separates the electronic controls from the motor allowing a much heavier solid 18.8 lb (8.5 Kg’s) Carbon Steel Housing that is shot peened and powder coated for mass dampening and resonance control. The Original GEM Motor is 8.2 Lbs. The motor is bolted internally with four ¼ - 20 Allen bolts in to a .800 thick top plate. The extreme precision of both the motor and the tolerances in the machined components provide extremely quiet and accurate speed control. The base features a fully inset ¼ inch silicone damping and locating ring located in specially machined Polycarbonate Base for isolation and non slip operation.

The control board enables super precise acceleration control allowing the use of a pure silicone single drive wheel. This provides improved coupling and reduced noise transfer.

We will provide a trade in allowance please send an email (larryd@ljtmfg.com) for details.

This motor will provide silky quiet operation with a 5-10 dB groove noise reduction vs. the standard motor. The net combination of a better motor, huge mass, better coupling, improved speed control, amount to a better sounding turntable.

This upgrade applies to all TTWeights new turntables and any table currently in use as we move forward we leave no one behind!

The new VTA POD – Tips

To fully take advantage of the new VTA adjustable pod please assure the tone arm VTA is at the lowest position:

Lower arm position is correct:

Higher arm will cause resonance in the tone arm:
