Revox introduced it's original Linatrack (Linear tracking/Tangential tonearm) model, the B790 in 1977. The B791 presented here is the updated version that was introduced in 1981. The pivoting REVOX tonearm concept with the tangential short tonearm represents a successful synthesis of technical innovation and constructive perfection. Damage to the record and scanning system as well as strength and resonance problems of conventional tubular tonearms are a thing of the past with this design. An electronically controlled tracking system keeps the pickup exactly in the middle of the record groove so that no playback distortion occurs. The flat motor developed and built by REVOX is quartz-controlled and drives the turntable directly. This ensures the synchronous consistency absolutely necessary for distortion-free playback without the need for readjustment, even when using record cleaning devices. The digitally displayed rotation speed of the turntable on the B791 can be quartz-controlled by ± 9.9% in steps of 0.1%. The sound variations that can be achieved in this way enable record lovers to create an extraordinarily nuanced playback and adapt it to their individual musical sensibilities. In addition, there is also the possibility of tuning the pitch to a musical instrument or audio-visual device in the simplest way possible.
