A Copernican View of the Turntable System

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."

The brilliant force behind the marketing of the Onedof summed it up for me like a super nova with Oneduff's Youtube production, click on (resonances do not occur) in the suspension and damping section of this web site.

Dear Halcro the Onedof makes that the DD Wave Kinectics see it as a " toy ".

Thuchan, I think that at least ( no matter price. ) the designer solve some " problems " that no other TT I know addressed, congratulations for that because this is a clear advance on TT design.

Regards and enjoy the music,
Raul.
