The FiiO TT13 sits at the heart of FiiO's push into the turntable market, bringing the brand's signature attention to engineering detail to vinyl replay. Designed for listeners who want a straightforward, high-quality introduction to analogue audio, it combines a fully automatic mechanism with modern wireless connectivity and a clean, minimal aluminium chassis.
Fully Automatic Operation
The TT13 features a custom fully automatic movement that returns the tonearm to its rest position at the end of a record, with a single button for start and stop. A physical Play/Pause button, Repeat function, and tonearm lift control are all accessible from the front panel, and an infrared remote control is included in the box for convenience from the listening seat.
Bluetooth 5.2 with aptX HD
A Qualcomm QCC3040 Bluetooth chip provides wireless transmission to compatible speakers or headphones, supporting SBC, aptX, aptX LL, and aptX HD codecs. This makes the TT13 equally capable of feeding a traditional wired amplifier via its RCA line-output or streaming wirelessly with high-resolution-quality audio to a Bluetooth receiver.
Built-In Phono Preamp
The TT13 includes an MM phono stage based on dual JRC5532 op-amps, delivering a line-level RCA output with up to 800 mV at 1 kHz. The built-in preamp means the turntable can connect directly to an amplifier's line-level input, though the output balance can also be adjusted via the front-panel knob for integration with a dedicated phono stage.
Audio-Technica AT3600LA Cartridge
The tonearm, constructed from brass with a surface-sprayed finish, is fitted with an Audio-Technica AT3600LA moving magnet cartridge. The AT3600LA is a well-regarded entry-level cartridge that delivers a balanced, musical sound, and is straightforward to replace or upgrade as the listener's system evolves.
Switchable Speed and Record Sizes
The TT13 supports both 33 1/3 RPM and 45 RPM with a dedicated speed-control button, and a toggle switch selects between 7-inch and 12-inch record playback. Wow and flutter is rated at 0.15% WRMS, reflecting the precision of the custom low-noise motor.
LED Platter Lighting
An ambient LED ring beneath the platter can be cycled through purple, red, orange, blue, cyan, green, white, or switched off entirely, giving the TT13 a striking visual presence in any room without detracting from its audiophile credentials.
