TW Acustic latest website here only in German though.  http://www.tw-acustic.de/00000198640aab305/000001985b0e5e29a/index.html

I have had the AC single motor for almost two years now.  Coming from an SME 30 I personally enjoy the TW more and find its pitch stability superior to the SME.  It can handle long or short tonearms and more than one as well.  Once set up not much to check other than speed which has never drifted for me.  Nothing else to touch once level it stays there etc...

Aparently the new powersupply for the motor makes it sound even better, but I have not heard it or the three motor.  I would like to hear the three motor but really do not have any interest in owning it.  Much debate on the synchronization of the three motor tables, some folks say it deos more harm than good.  But TW uses only one belt and the belt has minimal surface contact with the platter perimeter.  How it makes any sense I do not know.  They say it has a bigger sound and better pitch stability and more torque with less belt contact.
