Cyrus Audio TTP Turntable
The Cyrus Audio TTP combines muscular rhythmic drive, pitch-stable precision and an inky-black background with a remarkably expressive, full-bodied presentation. Its mass-loaded aluminium construction and low-noise drive uncover deep bass, focused imaging and delicate transient detail; HomeTheaterHifi and The Ear found it especially compelling for transparent, immersive vinyl replay.

Pros
Exceptionally quiet, stable playback produces a black background, focused images and strong soundstage depth.
Delivers agile timing, powerful yet detailed bass and lively dynamics across demanding material.
Heavy machined-aluminium chassis and platter provide premium build quality and strong resistance to external disturbance.
Cons
The high-mass platter does not reach speed especially quickly.
No dust cover is included; it is an optional extra.
The RB330 tonearm is capable, but some similarly priced rivals offer a more ambitious arm.

What Reviewers Are Saying
SOUND QUALITY PERFORMANCE 95/100
Reviewers consistently describe an unusually energetic yet refined presentation, combining powerful bass, strong rhythmic momentum and wide-open detail. Pitch is reported as highly secure, the RB330 tracks confidently, and the deck's exceptionally quiet background helps small details and spatial cues emerge clearly.
Overall Sound
96/100
Like Hifi found the TTP lively, fast and dynamically expressive, with full-bodied bass, sensitive microdynamics and richly rendered orchestral colour. HomeTheaterHifi praised its exceptional drive, deep soundstage and ability to reveal timbre and recording detail, while The Ear heard an open, transparent and effortless sound with articulate, weighty bass.
Speed Stability
95/100
HomeTheaterHifi cites wow and flutter below 0.1% from the digitally controlled motor system and describes timing as unfaltering. Hi-Fi Choice reports impressive pitch stability once the platter is up to speed, and The Ear calls the TTP absolutely pitch-stable.
Tonearm Performance
90/100
The RB330's low-friction bearing assemblies are said to extract considerable information, and The Ear found the arm secure and unflustered in keeping the stylus planted in the groove. Hi-Fi Choice notes that some similarly priced rivals may offer a more ambitious arm, although it considers the RB330 a capable match in practice.
Noise Isolation
96/100
HomeTheaterHifi found the turntable completely silent, with a black background and stable image focus. The Ear similarly reports hum-free operation, reduced groove roar and an inky-black background; Hi-Fi Choice says the dense chassis makes it fairly impervious to outside disturbance despite modest feet.
Assessments of Build Quality, Usability, and Overall Propositions.
Build Quality
94/100
The reviews describe a heavy, solidly engineered platform with a dense or machined aluminium chassis, aluminium platter and carefully executed integrated motor. Like Hifi calls the workmanship absolutely high quality, while HomeTheaterHifi highlights the finely designed motor and machined platter.
Features Usability
85/100
Electronic 33⅓ and 45rpm control, adjustable or replaceable feet, and the PSX-R2 upgrade connection give the TTP useful ownership flexibility. The substantial mass supports performance but makes initial placement less convenient, and Hi-Fi Choice notes that the motor does not reach speed especially quickly.
Value for Money
89/100
At roughly £4,000 to $5,800 depending on package and market, this is plainly a premium-priced turntable. Even so, HomeTheaterHifi calls it expensive but worth it in the long run, Hi-Fi Choice says it competes at the asking price, and The Ear considers its performance sufficient to justify an even higher price.

Manufacturer's Description — Cyrus Audio
The Cyrus TTP Turntable is the perfect complement to our award-winning Classic PHONO preamplifier, unless Moving Magnet is your choice of cartridge, and then any of the Cyrus Classic or XR pre-amplifiers or integrated amplifiers can also be considered as a suitable partner.
Precision machined from solid aluminium blocks, the plinth and platter are extremely stable for superb vinyl playback capability, while the lightweight arm provides an excellent mounting point for your choice of cartridge. The synchronous motor has a custom-designed digital control circuit, ensuring very low wow and flutter with exceptional speed stability.
The platter is suspended on a hardened steel axle rotating on an ultra-precise bearing with integrated lubrication that is mounted into a solid aluminium plinth machined from a single aluminium billet.
Featuring a DC synchronous motor and digital control circuit with exceptional speed stability the wow and flutter is extremely low. The supplied PSU is suitable for 90-264V operation.
The tonearm has been carefully designed using intelligent redistribution of mass to ensure it will exhibit fewer points of resonance. Almost friction free movement from the horizontal and vertical bearing assemblies guarantees to gather more information from your vinyl than ever before.
The TTP Turntable includes a port for the optional PSX-R2 power supply offered as an upgrade. Power from the PSX-R2 is routed internally to the motor drive stage to provide an even more stable, ultra-low noise power supply for the turntable motor.
Available directly from your local Cyrus dealer are our custom built clear acrylic dust covers, designed to perfectly protect your valuable TTP Turntable.
The dust cover features welded seams with side hand-holds and an etched Cyrus logo as well as rear cut-outs to allow cables to pass easily to your system.
