Just finished set up AFO with Simplicity II for customer. Goose bumps on most of records we'd played.

Finally, TechDAS Air Force One + Thales Simplicity II
- Thread starter audio-land
- Start date
Ops, let me try to squeeze them if it's possible.Johan
I need a 80 inch screen to see it - picture too big
Maybe not suprising re the massive build quality of the AF1. The interesting comparison may be w/the AF2/3.
Never a better time for tt choice - AF1/2/3, Thales, Kronos, Wave Kinetics, AMG Viella etc to add to the usual suspects of SME 20/30, TW Akustic, Brinkmann, Simon Yorke.
And my Trans Fi Salvation/Terminator direct rim drive tt/air bearing linear tracking arm, a true high end bargain at $7-8k (I walked away from the SME20/V and TW AC3/Graham at 4x the price upon hearing it).

Thales is a very great tt at a great price. Once we receive AF3, we'll let you know the result soon. Happy spinning

Titanium version was announced last week, it may takes several weeks to be ready and heard. There is no certainty in choosing the AFO's platter in a system. Duralumin and Aluminum are always chosen for our stock AFO.

Steve, I recommend two platters upon the purchase of the AF1....Duralumin and Stainless. They each have their own distinct sound character. There is no one best platter. Its better to have a choice to change the sound up a bit from time to time. Titanium sound is unknown at this point.
