Basis Turntables: Worth it or Ripoff?


Are the Basis turntables and arms (ie, Vector 4) worth their asking price? They seems very expensive for you apparently are getting?

but lets also ask what if anything you know about precision machining ?

how about freezing rubber and precision grinding that ?????

let me know your CNC skill level before you judge affordability 
"orpheus10 Jperry, you compared Vector 3 to Rega, but you did not give a model number for the Rega."

I
 compared the Basis Vector 3 to a Basis branded Rega, a Rega 600, and a Rega based Origin OL-1 silver.

It was significantly better than all of them. Better bass response and the imaging was so much better it is hard to describe. I was using a Shelter 901 cartridge at the time.

I've heard Basis turntables. Crazy great sound. With a clean record, I have not heard quieter backgrounds.
