That tonearm must be at least 2 feet long I wonder what the effective mass is? Must not be much tracing error though.

---What is the diameter of a 33 1/3 LP? ...Twelve inches right? Then that tonearm is twenty-four inches long (from the center of the pivot/shaft), and another four inches back of that center pivot.

The web site said the arm is 60cm which is damn near 24 inches. I don't imagine a high compliance cartridge will work.

The description of the motor is interesting. They said it was a constant current design.

That arm is probably pretty flexible.

The only interesting/redeeming thing about the turntable is the plinth is shaped like a concert grand piano.

I wonder if the controls are where the keyboard goes.

It does make for interesting conversation, though.

-----I didn't check their website. :b ...I only used my eyes and that posted picture.
...That one again just above, in Gary's quote (attached image).

Too bad the piano, I mean turntable doesn't have pedals. One could be used for the ON/OFF switch and the other two could be used for selecting 33.33 or 45 rpm!

The fourth is the Yamamura platterless table (like the table Ed Meitner designer a decade or two ago!). Fifth is the Simon York Series 10.
