New OA3 Tonearm

All of the new Orbits get upgraded to the OA3 tonearm that was developed for their top of the line Theory turntable. It is incredible to get a one piece magnesium tonearm with precision bearings in this price range.

Made in the USA

U-Turn turntables are made in Massachusetts with most of the parts coming from local vendors. Not only do they sound great, they are beautiful to display in your listening room.

Amazing Value

We really do not know how they do it. From all of the high tech materials to the impressive testing every single turntable goes through, you would think these would sell for 2-3 times as much as they do. Hat’s off to the team at U-Turn Audio for providing awesome turntables for vinyl lovers.

Introducing Orbit Arm 3

Designed to make audiophile-grade playback more accessible than ever. One-piece armtube for exceptionally low resonance. Molded in the USA from magnesium, a strong yet lightweight material with superior vibration damping properties. Precision gimbal bearing design allows the stylus to move freely — eliminating distortion and capturing more musical detail. Adjustable stainless steel counterweight and internal anti-skate. Ready to play out of the box with pre-installed cartridge.

Precision machined acrylic platter

Our frosted acrylic platter delivers enhanced speed consistency and lower resonance. Each platter is precision machined for flatness and virtually zero runout. Acrylic is remarkably effective at minimizing unwanted vibrations thanks to its high density and low stiffness. Grooved for easy belt installation and use. Inverted main bearing with self-lubricating polymer bushings for maintenance-free performance.

  • Acrylic Platter: Improved speed consistency and lower resonance.
  • Inverted main bearing: Stable, low-noise, and maintenance-free.

Hear your music, not your turntable

Low-noise AC synchronous motor provides excellent speed consistency with no audible pitch variation. Orbit's signature belt drive and rubber motor suspension prevent unwanted vibration from reaching the platter.

  • Manual speed control: Move belt to change 33/45 RPM.
  • Seamless silicone belt: All-new design for improved durability and performance.
