The simple design of the smoked acrylic and hairline with blue-light and copper line accents create a elegant appearance that suits a premium model.

All black housing for vibration and noise reduction

The heavy all-black housing coating that gives a presence as a premium model, is applied not only to the appearance but also the interior of the watch to further enhance the effects of reducing vibrations, improving heat dissipation, and reducing laser diffused reflections.

The black coating on the inside of the upper case improves heat dissipation and prevents the reflections of LD light and reduces signal noise.

The black coating on the outside of the upper case reduces vibration and noise caused by paint film.

The rubber paint finish on the disc tray reduces vibration and noise when rotated (high rotation range above 8,000 rpm) and reduces BDR-S13JBK by 5-20%

Low noise electrolytic capacitor, low resistance flat cable, anti-vibration cushion, anti-vibration rubber, loading motor made in Japan

New low noise electrolytic capacitor.It is designed to provide more noise reduction, and the same low resistance flat cable is used to increase the conductivity performance and reduce the noise of the record-playback signal.In addition, the vibration dampening cushion and anti-vibration rubber are added to each part of the drive to reduce vibration when the disc is rotated. In addition, the BDR-S13J-X uses a new DC motor made by a high quality, reliable domestic manufacturer in the tray loading.
