I owned an AC Orbe SE for a decade and liked it a lot. It was lively with great air and HF extension and created a good, solid image. I finally moved on because of pitch stability. The newer DC Orbes allow for speed adjustment, or so I understand, which would make them better, IMO. I now have a Nantais Reference Lenco and a Clearaudio Innovation Wood and they're both far ahead of my old Orbe in speed and pitch stability, among other things.
Yeah, John Michell was a great guy. He called me here in the US a couple of times, too, to check on some issues I was having. A kind gentleman. RIP.
