und mittels angebrachter Klebefolie am Laufwerkschassis befestigt.
Das Lageroberteil verfügt über eine Keramikachse mit polierter Oberäche und einer abgeschirmten
Magnetanordnung.
Das Emotion CMB Lager Nachrüstsatz macht eine Lagerkugel überüssig und lässt den Plattenteller
durch die patentierte Magnetanordnung wie auf einem Luftkissen schweben.
