Turntables currently considered top of the range. Do you know what they are ?

@biftwin I don’t think I will. That just ends up being troll bait, in my experience. But for purposes of my response to this thread, I have (in addition to turntable noted above):

Lyra Altas Lambda SL
Lyra Atlas Lambda Mono
Boulder 1108 phono-stage
Naim 252/Supercap DR preamp
Naim 300DR power amp
Naim NDX2/XPS DR network streamer
Dynaudio Confidence C2 Platinum speakers
REL S/510 subs (stereo pair)

Dohmann Helix One is likely the best turntable out there. Unless you want to spend $350k on a Wilson Benesch. 

Origin Live Voyager S could be up there as well. But I'd go with a Dohmann before any others myself.

Dohmann

Kuzma

Sat

These three brands cover the spectrum. 

Was just thinking it’s ironic that the LP12 is denigrated for the high cost of upgrades but Clearaudio gets away with it because for $20,000, you also get a name change.

Woots, what spectrum? And by the way, which Kuzma? No one here mentions any direct drive TT. The Dohmann Helix is the only belt drive I’d have in my system, if I were limited to BD.
