Walker Audio Proscenium Black Diamond V


As a long time owner of the Walker Audio Proscenium turntable, I'm delighted to see Lloyd pulling together all of his updates over the years, PLUS SOME NEW INNOVATIONS, into this newest evolution of his turntable.

Lloyd is one of those remarkable audio geniuses to whom we all as music lovers and audiophiles owe a deep debt of gratitude. Whether you own a Walker Audio product or not or ever will, the fact that he and other amazing people like him are constantly innovating innovating keeps our world moving dynamically forward.

Thank you, Lloyd, for all you've done for the industry!

I'm not sure I would say that a $105,000 turntable, and a gorgeous one it is, is Keeping it Real. Any more than a $15,000 Koetsu Platinum Coralstone Mono Cartridge, as beautiful and sumptuous sounding as it undoubtedly is, is Keeping it Real.

But charging 60.00 for a telephone call as a system enhancement IS keeping it real.....

Look on the bright side, it cuts down on house calls.

And I hear it keeps the elephants (and flying saucers) away ;-)
I remember seeing Lloyds table in 1999 at the Chicago Stereophile show. Cost was $14,995.

how times have changed, and no doubt the table to some degree, but 90k's worth?
Dear Rushton: I heard four times three different audio systems where the analog rig was " commanded " by the Walker TT.

One of those times was at Slipknotl place ( great fun there with a great family people there. Thank's. ) where I met Lloyd.

I have no single doubt on the TT high quality perfromance level but I'm questioning my self if those big 105K dollars are justified in front that high quality performance level against TTs costing 10-15 times lower other that the owner proud?, as Geoffkait posted: " it's that real? ".

Things in audio seems to me that everyday are targeted as priceless importance it does not matters the " real " value.

Of course that Walker as any other audio manufacturer/distributor is free to put the price they think is the best for its customers.

Of course that this price value diminish in no single way all the L.Walker works over the years to improve an to mantain a growing up " religious " high end hobby. Good for this!

Regards and enjoy the music,
