The

YP-700

employs

a

professional

type

belt

drive

system,

a

superior

method

of

providing

constant

speed

control

and

reducing

vibrations.

The

turntable

platter

is

solid,

die-cast

aluminum,

perfectly

balanced

to

reduce

distortion

to

an

absolute

minimum.

Yamaha's

unique

Double

Float

Mounting

system

eliminates

chassis

(induced)

vibrations

by

mounting

the

turntable

and

tone

arm

on

a

single

base,

isolated

from

the

chassis

by

shock

-absorbing

spring

mounts.

The

motor

is

similarly

mounted

on

a

separate

base,

further

reducing

the

minuscule

motor

vibrations

that

reach

the

turntable

base

to

an

unmeasurable

quantity.

The

cue

lever

provides

a

means

of

stopping

play

at

any

time

and

then

re

-starting

again

at

the

same

point.

Use

of

the

lever

provides

the

correct

starting

stylus

pressure,

reducing

the

possibility

of

damaging

the

stylus

and/or

scratching

the

record

when

playing

only

a

selected

portion

of

a

record.
