Continuum Caliburn - really the best TT on earth?

Kostas, my decision making started in 2006 at the High End show in Munich. It was more a long time process than a sudden impulse. Nevertheless the thread and the good advices helped me to settle my decision in the end.

I cannot give a judgement right now, I need some time of listening but Mike is on the right track. We have to compare it with a Caliburn some day - maybe in the same system...

I am slowly proceeding. The neodymium tabletts which keep the floating armboard in position is a wonderful invention, especially in the completion of Continuum. I dismounted everything and assembled it again. The difference on impact it has on the sound I will figure out when everything is in place - and then maybe changing the distance between the tabletts from underneath the chassis.

At the moment I have a more stiffer calibration by reducing the distance to the near minimum.

Hi Eckart,

It´s done! Everything is fine. The Copperhead is a delicate but excellent tonearm. I wouldn`t like to change the cartridge too many times in the Copperhead.

From my experience the weight scales in the manual are not exact.

I have put some pics under my system

At this price it should be the best!!

Thuchan,

Don't be afraid to move the Continuum and stand from out of the soundstage. In all its eagerness to please its new owner it may want to sing along with the music or at least annoy the singer on the stage between the speakers :)

Was that Norah Jones?
