Sirius and Walker




Hi Folks:

I have first hand experience with the Walker turntable and, to this day, it's the finest I have ever heard. Can anyone compare the sound of the Walker with the Rockport with the same material? I'm very interested.

Thanks as always.

you might want to pm member mikelavigne, who owned a rockport for quite a while and has heard/owned most other bleeding edge tables and arms.
Hi Dan,

Two very different takes on vinyl. They are not close in any way that I hear.

I prefer the pace, timing and clarity of the Rockport. There is a solidity that I do not hear with the Walker. This is not meant in any way as a slight on the Walker, it is just a different approach and to my ears, direct drive, properly implemented, cannot be touched by most belt drive systems

I really like Lloyd and he works very hard at making his turntable sound great and I have heard the Walker sound magical, but the Rockport approach is much more elegant and simpler and that, to me, transfers sonically.

Regards,

Jonathan
