I think you also mentioned that you were involved with the Voyd (which for a Pink Triangle user as I was back then, looked very charming). I recall Voyd being recently acquired by Audio Note UK; are you affiliated with them?Anyway, I actually wa...

Hi Wojtek,   I've only seen/heard an SP25 once and I wasn't able to judge how good it was as the rest of the equipment was unfamiliar to me. There is some information about the various Technics DD turntables here.http://de.geocities.com/bc1a69...

Hi John, I was involved with the Voyd originally. I have no connection with AN UK now except that I use one of their UK made Io cartridges. With regard to the SP10 Mk2 I like it very much. It removes any sense that a record is playing. I use a ...

Hi Romy,What kind of bearings are going to be supporting 42 and 62 Kg quietly?I remember a Swedish friend making a 75Kg gunmetal platter some years ago. Sounded very nice as long as the bearing lasted (which wasn't long!)Would there not be a ben...

It's a pisser, all right, but a high-demands, OCD hi-fi nut might "realistically" spend years trying to get the most from a "serious" TT/arm/cartridge rig.  IMO, most people are probably better off with something "easy to use", if that is not an ...

Browse the content of the threads in new Window  Thread: Ultimate Turntable in Analog Playback  220 Replies 
Certainly it took Technics a while to sort out the motor control systems in their serious DD machines. The earlier SP10 Mk1 is not a good example. On the Mk2 they seem to have got it right. Even with that there are other issues like the mat & pli...

The Ultimate turntable only needs to provide for one arm. The ultimate arm. Why compromise its performance with various inferior arm designs. I'm not sure that high mass is necessarily a good thing.  Yes it stores a large amount of kinetic ener...
