Are there any Delphi Oracle Users Who Can Comment


Oracle Delphi users,... can you comment on your TT and your love/hate? Is it an excellent TT or is it just a cool one? What is it? 

Their support seems to be very excellent and their upgrades are at least existing and relevant.

Hah ! Michell is a toy and actually apes ORACLE and its suspension is just a clumsy effort. DELPHI and PREMIERE are true high tech and High-End decks, in every aspect like its hanging suspension system in particular, one of the finest suspended deck there ever was. Naturally the suspension must be perfectly balanced to get  the best out of an ORACLE. Not an easy task for novices. If you don´t adjust it properly the sound easily becomes awful. Furthermore, a DELPHI could be tuned for a certain sound but that´s another story.
I am looking at an Oracle Delphi right now with view to purchase.
What points do I need look for?
Potential problems or flaws?
This one has a Magnepan Unitrac 1 carbon tone arm and Denon 305 included.

Thank you
Brooks Berdan was an Oracle guru ( RIP )
we carried SOTA which as others have noted had better bass and much more resistanr isolation wise.
I would not hesitate to buy a well maintained and sorted Oracle...
And that seems to be the issue I have, defining a well maintained Oracle.
What to look for?
After reading a couple of threads on the Magnepan Unitrac arm I may have found one major issue to begin with (on the one I was looking at )
It appears the seller has "cut the ends of the tonearm lead"
Not 100% clear just why yet but by all accounts it is near impossible to run a new tonearm cable through this arm?
So that would mean a new arm for sure I think.
I owned an Oracle I with II suspension and many mods with an Alphason arm for years. For the last 2 years, using an Oracle IV SE, changed the bearing bottom to Mk V, using with a Graham 2.2t arm installed on a Delrin disc. Very fussy to set up, but once set.. very stable. Changing the belt especially frustrating. Love the sound. I can't see using a no suspension table unless a lot of effort is spent on isolation. I suspect some of the comments on soft bass may be the SME arms.
