A Copernican View of the Turntable System

Dear Nandric,
oh yes, got your point very early. I mean Marlene seemed to live in a sealed world - not you! Marlene was able to do much more than me - maybe she also had more beautiful legs...
Your assumption about the listening room is quite right, but you know the plan and the implementation had a price. My wife was asking for a Japanese Garden and a big veranda on top of it. It also has an advantage, the room is fully noise sealed - which means I cannot hear her anymore when she is dancing on the veranda :-). but be assured she knows how to reach me...

You see it is not as simple as it looks and one usually does not need a room like mine. It is rather based on an ambition than money. Shure you can do it too but maybe you went not such crazy as me. Stay normal please!

Lewm: scroll down this page, http://www.onedof.com/pictures and you'll see what they call the 'tonearm tower'.

I see it now. Thx. That is one heckuva pod. Still would like to know the name of this table and who makes it, not that I am in the market. Does it really retail for $150K, as H implied?

Lew,
If you go to the onedof site that Banquo sent and then 'click' on 'Designer'.....you will see the price.

Just look around that website. It has all the answers. Yes, $150k.

"A first in the history of the audio turntables self-centering One Degree of Freedom or Onedof™ bearing eliminates the source of acoustic distortions associated with microscopic movements of all existing cylindrical shafts. With its unique precision Onedof™ bearing is holding massive spinning platter steadily. The bearing only permits the platter steady rotation about the vertical axis, passing through the center of the planet Earth. It is the only degree of freedom that the bearing leaves to the platter."
