Maybe he is too humble to play that game...so he plays it for Gryphon who have been in the uber space for their whole existence.

He gets two streams - one for the Brinkmann Brand and one via Gryphon. We assume he was paid only a one off, he might have a percentage for every table sold.

This way, he has his flagship at 40 - 50k and another flagship at 150k. Both are flagships for different customer profiles.

Should be named Sisyphus as that is who you will feel like after shelling out 150k.

I guess if it’s another item to buy but not listen to, can be named Cassandra

Yes, you can buy them separately, BB comes with sinus motor.
if you have older models or Lagrange, you can upgrade to sinus motor.

Sorry missed the link with the pricing info.
Sinus motor in the picture looks like a motor unit without the housing?

There must be a business case for so many manufacturers releasing huge, > $/€/£100k turntables, but I am struggling to understand the extent of the market for such things.

Simple in my view. Potential profits from uber expensive priced items. Sadly or perhaps not, a somewhat common practice these days in hi end audio. If anyone has a different opinion other than the "complete" system strategy from one manufacturer concept, I'd love to hear it.

Both names used by Aries Cerat already...

The Apollo name was used for the top Maplenoll turntable 25 years ago, a ugly unreliable table with air bearing, vacuum hold down and air tangential arm with front silicon trough. :rolleyes:

I like the Gryphon sound, and their aesthetic, and have bought several amps from their range. I appreciate what they've done with this and I'm sure that it'll sound great, but IMO it's an ugly device and crazy money. I wonder what the market is, I imagine that it is very small in the UK certainly. I'll be really interested to see what the reaction to Siren is - is it the same size as the Commander?

Sorry man, but Audiolabor synchron came out years after Brinkmann et al. sold the company.

Brinkmann still offers service for synchron and Konstant turntable today.
 
What is your point ? This is a thread about the Gryphon turntable designed by Brinkmann.
Model Audiolabor synchron is not designed by Brinkmann.
