New Horizon - 190i Turntable Black

The 190 takes you into the world of quality analog music with the unique design of the New Horizon turntables that seamlessly integrates into any environment with a refined and contemporary style.

Its elegant colors and refined finishes make the turntable not only an audio device, but also an element of great aesthetic impact.

Every aspect of the turntable has been designed to make the 190 a champion in audio performance.

The new New Horizon arm was created to satisfy the tastes of true music lovers. The solid and harmonious double plinth structure minimizes unwanted vibrations, ensuring a clear and pure sound.

The drive system adopts an extremely thin silicone belt that completely eliminates motor feedback for precise and detailed sound reproduction.

With the New Horizon 190 you will feel the pleasure of listening to music like never before. A satisfying and engaging aesthetic and musical experience.

In depth

Synchronous AC motor

The turntable pulsating heart is the compact 24VAC synchronous motor whose main feature is its extremely regular rotation, independent from the variations of the mains voltage, given that its speed depends on the mains frequency. The high torque and the rotation speed of 500 rpm actively contribute to the regularity and fluidity of the plate rotation.

Mechanical suspension

129 is a set of mechanical parts in action. The largest internal source of noise and vibrations is the motor that must be isolated as much as possible from all other parts of the turntable. The engine insulation in New Horizon turntables is made by an exclusive mechanical suspension system. Through precision steel springs, calibrated on the suspended weight of the motor and the pulley, the oscillation transmission to the plinth is efficiently blocked.

Belt drive

The transmission of the motion to the plate is obtained by a special belt in natural rubber. The choice of this material ensures an excellent energy transfer and a good decoupling from the vibrations produced by the engine during the operation.

Inverted bearing

One of the strong points in New Horizon turntables is the plate rotation pivot. The perfection of the movement is the result of a accurate project and several prototypes. Today the piece in production has a sturdy inverted bearing structure in three pieces of aluminum and steel that guarantee the maximum “silence” and a very low rotation friction.

9'' Arm NH91

The NH 91 is a 9″ straight cardanic arm entirely designed and built in New Horizon laboratories. Vertical and horizontal movements based on very low tolerance ball bearings and hand assembly ensure the best coupling of components. It is the result of continuous research and passion that pushes us incessantly to offer a fantastic product.

Plinth HD

129 is a rigid-base turntable. It is essential that the base, or plinth, is able to keep stable the fixing of the other parts of the apparel and to stand opposite to the transmission of vibrations and resonances: our choice at New Horizon is the compressed recycled wood pulp and artificial resins. This material is extremely smooth and heavy and its isomorphic composition works much more efficiently than the solid wood.

Methacrylate plate

The appearance is extremely important: on New Horizon turntables there are only laser-cut plates in Crystal Methacrylate. This material with a high specific weight combines the excellent ability to disperse the vibrations kinetic energy, to the elegance of a perfect transparency.

Output on RCA terminals

New Horizon turntables are interfaced in the best way with all your electronics. An excellent insulating material plate accommodates the gold-plated RCA output terminals. The ground connection is not necessary because the 129 has its own internal shielding.
