Warped vinyl doesn't have to be a death sentence for your favorite records! The ORB Audio DF-01IA+ Record Flattener gently coaxes bowed, bent, and heat-warped LPs back to dead-flat in just a few hours — no butchered grooves, no compromised sound, just your collection playing like it should. If you've got a bowed pressing that skips, wobbles, or throws your tonearm for a ride, this is the fix serious vinyl heads have been waiting for. 💿

Here's the honest part: we don't just sell this thing — we swear by it. Our in-house DF-01IA+ runs every single day here at STOKYO, flattening warped records nonstop, and it performs flawlessly every time. That's not marketing fluff — that's a machine we personally trust with records we care about. When we tell you it works, it's because we watch it work daily.

Why It Belongs in Your Setup

  • Rescues records you thought were toast → Gently warms and applies uniform pressure to flatten warps without degrading audio quality. Your grooves stay intact, your sound stays true.
  • Set it and trust it → The automatic heating temperature adjustment dials in the right heat every time, so you get consistent, optimal results without babysitting the process.
  • Even heat, edge to edge → Semiconductor film built into both the top and bottom heaters spreads warmth evenly across the whole disc, so there's no hot-spotting or uneven flattening.
  • Handles your heavyweight pressings → Includes an adapter for heavyweight flat discs without groove guards, so audiophile-grade records over 180g are covered.
  • Fits your whole collection → Multi-size adapters for 7" EP, 7", 10", and 12" records mean nearly your entire shelf is welcome.

Made-to-Order in Japan — Worth the Wait

This is a made-to-order unit crafted in Japan, so please allow up to 3 weeks for delivery to cover production, freight, and customs. That lead time isn't a delay — it's the difference between a mass-produced gadget and a precision-built machine assembled with real care. This long-selling flattener has earned its reputation for a reason, and quality like this simply can't be rushed off a shelf.

How It Works

Vinyl is sensitive to heat, which is exactly why records warp over time — poor storage, sunlight, or just plain aging pulls them out of shape. The DF-01IA+ flips that same principle in your favor. Its dual semiconductor-film heaters apply gentle, even warmth from top and bottom while uniform pressure eases the record back to flat. The result? A restored disc that spins true and sounds the way it did the day it was pressed.

A quick heads-up on compatibility: this is built for standard analog records made from polyvinyl chloride (PVC). SP records, extra heavy-weight records, and flexi discs are not supported — so check your pressing before you load it in.
