A Copernican View of the Turntable System

Dear Thuchan: I can tell you why the SME 30 is a top performer. Please let us know why it is not, if you are complaining about then you have specific reasons to did that. Thank's in advance for your answer.

Regards and enjoy the music,

One of the simplest and cost effective approaches I have seen yet.

Dear Raul,
if you are thinking the SME 30/2 is a top performer I am wondering why you are not going for it. Maybe we see the table in your system soon?

It is not about me. You need to become happy with this table. If you are as many others are this is fine. I respect and understand your benchmark position on TTs now better.

I usually try not repeating myself - especially on listening assessments.

Hi Brad,
Thanks for the link.
Whilst it looks quite simple........it requires some quite refined DIY skills for the home handyman?
The many connections of metal to wood provide severe hinderances to rigidity however.
Solidity, mass and rigidity are the three requirements 'sine qua non' for a remote armpod IMHO.
Cheers

Thuchan,

Like Raul, I, too, am interested in reading why you don't think the SME 30/2 is a good turntable. Could you please explain what aspects of its performance you don't like and why?

Have you heard the SME 30/12 also?
