Why consider this model?

  • For a buyer comparing the current Orbit line, Special is the clearest choice when the 2M Red package, included cue lever and push-button/knob speed selection are priorities; its acrylic platter and dimensions match the family format.

Tradeoffs to weigh

  • The electronic speed selector does not automate starting, cueing or lifting the arm, and it does not document a record-end stop. The built-in Pluto 2 stage remains a separate selectable option. It is not a 78 RPM turntable, and still needs speakers/amplification beyond the deck.
