Except of the Linn LP12 and the REGA P3 you may keep them all.
Love the Bergmann tables. True works of art and with those air bearings in the platter and linear tracking arm. Wow! This is my “dream” TT.
Yes, they are exceptional design! Don’t know how they sound…linear air bearing arms can be a bit fiddly…
Looks like a nightmare dental appliance
hey, i think i knew this but we have similar situations going here! (Cart was off while i was replacing stock armboard with walnut.)
what is that big stuff under the turntable of the mono stereo photo
No clue, I thought the one in the middle is the weight for the basis, but it inherits electronics it seems…just as the one aside…possibly motor drive and a pump motor? But I guess it’s different.
Hi Jazznut,
I just like the Classic looks of the Einstein, Bergmann, Linn, Perpetuum Ebner, ELAc, VPI, EAC, Rega, but Thorens is what my favorite brand is.
This has not much to do with any judgement on sound, the more sculptures looking turntables are certainly interesting, but for practical reasons I prefer a hood on the turntable.
My good ol’ circa 1978 Kenwood KD-500 with a Shure SME 3009 Series II and Shure V-15 hyper-elliptical always sounded stellar at a very modest cost. Gotta love epoxy resin limestone.
Oswalds Mill Audio K3 Direct Drive Turntable.
Michael Fremer announced this upcoming turntable on AnalogPlanet recently (the TT in the picture is a prototype), where he predicted that the price would be over $200,000.00.
Thanks
It looks impresive
Something mechanical, never going to be 100% Perfect, whit time that goes bye, the Earth gravitation etc going to make the turntable have, speed issue, etc
Here a few more fancy turntables…and for those lacking appropriately looking speakers, I attached a few suggestions.
@brodric: this is a rigid aluminum chassis
Rube Goldberg meets steampunk.
Perfect observation!
Who the heck owns all this stuff? There must be a scene beyond us.
I’d like to stick Mikey Fremer in a room with all of those eye-candy turntables and watch his head explode.
I am glad to see I still have quite a long way to go with this silly obsession.
Wow amazing stuff jazznut
