If I could afford, I’d purchase 100% Oswald Mills Audio gear

of course, the uber high end is fun…

Remember taking a certain golf pro  / course designer thru an executive jet on the line, the customer was USG, so he was unimpressed with the interior choices….until i mentioned you could load a John Deere Gator on the main deck…

Suddenly that big ugly door…became essential….and yes, we put bad A exotic veneer on it….for $

Pretty is as pretty does… i believe is tge saying

How can you be sure the Basis will beat it? It's a pretty standard high mass belt drive. The OMA uses out of the box thinking in noise mitigation and direct drive. I heard the Basis and it wasn't a revelation.

Ugliest turntable I've ever seen.

Those Torqueo tables are beautiful

For sure, especially this model in my opinion, but many people on audiogon may think they are ugly too, because they have no taste at all as I can see. Looking at the system profiles you can understand what people like in their room and how they room actually looks, most of them don’t have to talk about design at all :))

They have a Rek-o-Kut vibe.
