ESOTERIC LAUNCH T-01 TURNTABLE
Esoteric is proud to launch the T-01 turntable, which features a patented “Esoteric MagneDrive” contactless drive system. The product will be available for from the end of September 2026 and we are taking pre-orders now.
First introduced in the groundbreaking Grandioso T1, the revolutionary patented (JP6501130) “Esoteric MagneDrive System” redefined the foundations of analog playback through its exclusive contact-free drive technology.
Now integrated into the T-01, it achieves extraordinary rotational silence, stability, and high-torque performance, revealing music with uncompromising precision, energy, and realism.
Four years after the debut of the Grandioso T1, the Esoteric Analog Revolution lives on.
Developed from the engineering philosophy established in the Grandioso T1, the T-01 incorporates key technologies inherited from Esoteric’s flagship analog platform, including 10MHz external clock synchronization, a sophisticated triple-layer aluminium and MDF cabinet construction, and a newly developed, silent MagneDrive motor system integrated into a more installation-friendly chassis architecture.
At the intersection of precision mechanical engineering and advanced electronic design, the T-01 is dedicated to reproducing the original master sound with breath-taking realism, musical energy, and emotional depth.
