Sovereign Mk5  & Sovereign Special  Turntable Chassis ...arm & cartridge extra.

Features...   Sovereign Mk5 with Standard Multilayer Platter

Better specified than decks lower in the Origin Live range, the Sovereign boasts improved decoupling of the main bearing and armboard. The previous MK3-2 version introduced a complex multilayer platter designed to dissipate energy in the most effective manner possible. This proved to be a huge upgrade and resulted in more outstanding comments from the press.

The “Sovereign Special” with Special Multilayer Platter

The Sovereign Special differs from the Sovereign Mk5 by virtue of its remarkably upgraded multi-layer platter. As a rule, the closer a part is to the cartridge the more it affects the performance. You can’t get much closer to the cartridge than the platter and this is where a lot of the magic happens in the highest performing decks. This particular version of the Multilayer platter features some of the key components present in the top of the range Voyager turntables. The result is a huge increase in detail, dynamics and clarity. Music comes alive in a way rarely heard even among the highest end decks. This version of the Sovereign is a highly worthwhile acquisition over the standard Sovereign.

Plinth

The plinth is high mass and uses systematic decoupling design throughout.

Drive System

Sovereign’s load-compensating power supply is the culmination of work carried out over decades, and is designed to feed clean power to the motor across a wide range of temperatures.

Sovereign is hand-built in Britain to extremely high standards.

Superlative Style

Sovereign is a visually arresting turntable. Its unique styling is purposeful yet elegant, beautifully hand finished with a polished black plinth and chrome suspension pods and accenting.

High Grade Parts

High mass plinth using low resonance sandwich construction increases bass performance and overall definition

Setting up
