Stereophile Class A tables

I own a Bardo and it's by far the best table I've had in a looooong time. It blows away my TTWeights table that couldn't even hold it's speed steady. Never heard the Balanced but some day will get a chance to compare them, hopefully.

Sksos1, I don't wish to hijack the thread, but could you describe the sonic differences between the Bardo and Oasis?

Wrm I've never compared these 2 Brinkmann's sorry.I personnally feel a plinthless design will cause less conerns IMHO.

Thanks, Sksos1. I know what you mean.

"As always, people in the 'audio know' confuse price with the 'better' word. One has nothing to do with the other. Don't even mention the word 'worth' as that is a very subjective judgement and is wholly depending on each persons bank balance. "

If that's the case they than how do you explain the original post? 2 turntables made by the same company, with 1 costing 3x the other yet they still end up in the A category?
