Continuum Caliburn - really the best TT on earth?


I have read so many good things about the Caliburn but also figured out that this table needs some care (software, o-ring, air suction etc.) To my knowledge they have improved the table over the last three years.

Is there anyone out who has experience with this table besides of audio shows -meaningly having tested the Caliburn with the Cobra and e.g. a Lyra system within a very good chain? Is there any reason not to go for a Caliburn?

Lewm, the Omegas have 2000 Watt per channel, maybe enough power for the Grand Slamm III ?

I do understand and you are all fully right in the way asking why does it need a new table? I come back to this - need to shovel snow outside...
To me, a turntable is part art, part performance.

I too collect and I love the pursuit of the acquisition as much as I do the day to day enjoyment of it.

Why do I need four simultaneous working tables in the main system? Why do I need five classic tables in other rooms? No reason except for the enjoyment of ownership of what the audio artist created.

Jay Lenoism... it you can indulge in it why not? What is better than enjoyment, happiness and fulfillment?

Peter, not sure how long you have been on this earth but do you really think that happiness and fulfillment comes from owning stuff - any stuff? I'll concede enjoyment but really that's about it.
For me, yes. I am happy when I see, touch and experience all the great pieces of audio art that grace my home. I truly relish in it all. I collect art as well and feel the same way. It brings me happiness. I've been smitten by audio equipment since being a boy and I make no apologies about it. My Bozaks bring me the same joy as my MBLs... they don't argue, they don't talk back, they don't divorce me, they don't sue me. I challenge you to tell me what can bring such pure joy notwithstanding breathtaking sunsets, love making, financial success and family?
but seems to me by its designs that maybe the most important " weight " in the overall Caliburn performance comes/culprit by the Cobra tonearm, who knows?
I know......having heard the Caliburn/Cobra extensively and having the Continuum Copperhead mounted on my Raven AC-3.
The Caliburn's performance owes far more to its DNA design innovations than simply to the tonearm mounted to it.
Ask Mikey Fremmer. he has the Graham Phantom mounted on his Caliburn as well as the Cobra?
