AR ETL-1 (Sound of the Wood™ )

The Acoustic Research ETL-1 turntable which was introduced in the mid 80’s, became the new standard for performance and quality in the AR line. Much of the previous learning’s from the ES-1 and EB-101 sets were re-engineered into one of the most beautiful wood turntables ever sold. The ETL-1 Sound of the Wood™ Series II, shown below takes the performance to an even higher level of sophistication and detail, while improving the overall beauty of the instrument.
