New Mark Levinson No5105 turntable is an exercise in precision engineering Mark Levinson, October 15, 2020

Precision engineering meets uncompromised design with the new Mark Levinson No5105 Turntable that turns heads for visual and audio excellence, transforming listening experiences into events best shared for optimal enjoyment! Priced at $6,500 without phono cartridge and $7,500 factory calibrated with a cartridge, the new No5105 Turntable is an heirloom investment yielding an immediate return in terms of musical appreciation.

“The No5105 Turntable is a stunning manifestation of the Mark Levinson brand proposition that music needs to be heard in its entirety to be enjoyed at its fullest,” said Jim Garrett, Senior Director, Product Strategy and Planning, HARMAN Luxury Audio. “It is a statement our customers stand behind — in the isolation of listening rooms but also increasingly in shared space among friends, family and kindred spirits — that analog has a warmth and depth that cannot be synthesized.”

The Mark Levinson No5105 premium turntable is built upon a nearly two-inch thick, solid aluminum plinth machined from a single billet, and suspended on three adjustable aluminum feet, each with a mixed-material internal suspension system. A one-inch thick, bead-blasted, black-anodized solid aluminum front panel is contoured into a sleek tinted glass display.

The iconic Mark Levinson hourglass knob design is featured as a record weight — bead-blasted machined aluminum with a gently curved profile mass loaded with solid brass. This silhouette is echoed in the custom aluminum dual-axis tonearm gimbal. The tonearm tube itself is 10-inch, high-gloss back carbon fiber fused to a solid aluminum headshell with an integrated finger lift.

A 14lb solid aluminum platter is suspended on a hardened steel axle, and rotates on ultra- precise bearings. The oil-free bearing bottom is made of a mix of composite materials with integrated lubrication and a maintenance-free sintered brass bushing to ensure reliable operation for years to come.

The 12V synchronous motor’s control signal is digitally generated; therefore, it exhibits no temperature drift, ensuring speed stability and low wow/flutter. The integrated wide-range power supply is designed for global use with 90-260 VAC.

The No5105 includes a custom Mark Levinson platter mat that comes in a unique gatefold package. A precision alignment jig is included for proper installation and calibration of a phono cartridge. The No5105 is also available as the No5105MC which comes with a factory installed Ortofon Quintet Black S moving coil phono cartridge. The Quintet Black S cartridge was specifically chosen for the No5105MC by Mark Levinson’s Director of Engineering Todd Eichenbaum due to its exceptional performance in combination with the design parameters of the turntable.

The No5105 and No5105MC turntables are proudly designed and engineered in the USA, and precision-crafted in Germany.

The new 5000 series products debuted during the Mark Levinson Reveals virtual event, for more information on the event and to watch it back click here.
