Project AR XA by MrHiFi | Feb 18, 2021 | 12 comments One of HiFi's most important turntables hit the market in 1961. Acoustic Research launched it's new belt-driven XA, designed by Edgar Villchur.

It contains a motor, a rubber belt, a highly machined platter/spindle, an ultra lightweight tone arm, a cartridge with stylus, and an on/off switch. The platter is suspended at three places underneath. Wow and flutter are indiscernible. You can spin the platter by hand and then go make a cup of coffee while it's still spinning..

AR XA Model This is the original AR turntable. (See AR History for more specific background on its development.) It had a two-piece aluminum platter which was driven by a small synchronous motor. Early versions had two motors to add the extra torque needed to start the heavy platter. A spring-suspended subchassis supported the platter and tonearm.
