Even in a family of
special products, the Space 294 is
special. One of the few turntables on
the market ever to be specifically
designed to take advantage of a 12 inch
tonearm. The longer arm affords less
tracking error than a shorter arm, and
Nottingham has been extremely clever in
avoiding the pitfalls typical of these
longer and therefore heavier arms. By
eliminating as much mass as possible
from the head shell end of the arm this
table will still track imperfect records
with the best of them.The 294
also has a 14” platter. By adding extra
mass outside the diameter of the record,
Tom Fletcher has greatly improved the
rotational stability of the player. This
turntable has all the improvements
described in the Ace Space but it can
only take 12” (294mm) tonearms and is
not suitable for a second tonearm. The
standard size HD kit can be fitted to
this turntable if the customer wishes.
