Introduction

Modernising and Enhancing Performance: SME's Model 35 equipped with the innovative Vi series tonearm emerges, offering both extreme performance and modern aesthetic appeal. The advanced technology incorporated in this design not only surpasses the renowned Model 30 turntable but sets a new standard in its category.

Design and Engineering

The Model 35 features a sophisticated tri-column design, inspired by SME's flagship Model 60, crafted with meticulous precision. Its acoustically optimised chassis, paired with de-coupled feet for multipoint isolation, enhances performance by controlling resonance. This innovative engineering results in a compact and streamlined profile, integrating effortlessly into any environment while providing exceptional sound quality.

Tonearm Technology

The SME Model 35 is equipped with the enhanced Series Vi Tonearm, where "i" signifies improvement, demonstrating a significant enhancement over the Series V. The Series Vi tonearm is CNC machined from High-Density Polymer material, ensuring extreme precision. This one-piece design is crafted with tight tolerances and adheres to our rigorous standards of quality control. The Vi tube features a circular cross-sectional shape. This design results in a very low resonance signature with far better measured tonearm and pillar resonances, contributing to pure tonal fidelity.

Every component of the Model 35 is fine-tuned for optimal performance. With its sleek appearance and superior performance, this turntable is the epitome of modern audio engineering.
