Denon DP-29F – Fully Automatic Belt-Drive Turntable with Built-in Phono Equalizer

The Denon DP-29F is a plug-and-play fully automatic belt-drive turntable designed for simple and convenient vinyl playback. It combines one-touch automatic operation, a DC servo motor, precision die-cast aluminium platter, dynamically balanced straight tonearm and factory-fitted DSN-82 Moving Magnet cartridge. A built-in switchable phono equalizer allows the DP-29F to connect to amplifiers and audio systems both with and without a dedicated MM phono input.

System Integration

The Denon DP-29F is designed for straightforward integration into a stereo system. With its built-in phono equalizer enabled, the turntable can connect to a standard AUX, CD or other line-level analogue input on a compatible amplifier, receiver or powered speaker system. When connecting the DP-29F to a dedicated MM PHONO input or an external MM phono preamplifier, the internal phono equalizer should be switched off. Its fully automatic mechanism, factory-installed MM cartridge and fixed 3.5g tracking force make the DP-29F particularly suitable for simple plug-and-play vinyl playback.
