A Copernican View of the Turntable System


Once again this site rejects my long posting so I need to post it via this link to my 'Systems' page

Being introduced 12 months ago the Onedof must (should...) have reached by now 65-70% of it's prospective buyers (marketing rule/product circle).
There must be a few samples out there.

I spent some time in the room last year at RMAF. There is nothing I can say bad about this table but recall being stunned about the pricetag when hearing it. I was more impressed than not at the craftmanship and sound.

As most know it is hard to truly evaluate one component at these shows, there is just too much going one. I found that rooms that included their own room treatment benifit the most on getting it right then it still cames down to everything in the chain as Thuchan stated.

Halcro, I think the point he was trying to get across was mass is a criteria but the q of the material is more important with a hint on 6061. I mentioned this once in this thread already with TTweights pod using the combination of aluminum, lead and derlin.

Here are a couple of pics I took at RMAF last year of the table. Included one other of a freinds implementation of 6061.

Dertonarm,

"No Audiogoner with any experiences in his/her home set-up?"

To have tried it, I would have had to sell my home and live in the tt.

The wife's not likely to accept that option!

As always
Dgob, wouldn't go that far,... certainly not.
But seriously - anybody having an idea what song they are playing in the Onedof-video on youtube ?
Would honestly like to know.
I agree, Halcro, that the proof's in the pudding. But what does Thucan's and other's rejection or, at any rate, lukewarm reception of this tt prove?

We lack an explanation. It might be, gasp!, the sound of the separate tonearm pod that explains their displeasure. It might be that the bearing design isn't what it's cracked up to be. It might be...etc., etc..

Yay or nay judgments, even if true, take us only so far. That's why, loathe as I am to engaging in technical discussions, it interests me in this case because it might alter deliberations I actually have. For instance, knowing more about that 'q' value could influence future pod material and dimension choices.

Ecir38: cool pics, thanks. Do you know/did you note how the height of the arm tower is adjusted?
