The SME Model 8 is a completely redesigned version of the "entry-level" record player (by SME standards, of course) and is the successor to the Model 6 turntable. The novelty has a high-density polymer base (available in white, black and dark blue) and a more massive support disc, which corresponds to the manufacturer's statement about a 40% increase in weight compared to the previous model.
