I said I would never buy another Turntable...Argh !!!

I am a simple fellow. I am looking forward to one phono stage and one turntable and, at the very most, two tonearms and two cartridges.
That how it all starts Ron. Ortofon SPU’s are cheap and sound great. David is currently mounting my Koetsu Tiger Eye. Can’t wait to hear it on the AS.
The finished product looks wonderful, you should be proud David.
Sounds great Christian, I'm jealous.

Sell those obsolete turntables, guys, and buy more tapes!
they just got the turntable
Ok, I was not sure for a momentary. That's all it masters, the best Jennifer Warnes warm voice.
Totally agree on this.
If Mr.Resnick and Mr.Lavigne dont mind, could you move up my ETD David?
And also add one of those 3012R as a topping for me too
.Kind regards,
Tang

David,
Congratulations on bringing this to fruition, I know only too well that these projects are 'all consuming', both in time and energy, mental and physical, but it seems like you have created a reference piece there, really - well done! And to those that have put the funds on the table for them, without you these projects can stall so easily, so bravo to you all too..
Happy Xmas to you all..
Paul.

As an architect and designer......I'm wondering if the embossed 'tooling' marks on the plinth was a casualty of 'costings'....?
I really liked that finishing aesthetic.....
Not embossed it’s surface tool scraped, a technique which is still practiced by some but finding someone with artistic talents to make the pattern aesthetically pleasing was always a challenge and even more so today. The AS-2000 is a new turntable and not a nostalgic resurrected copy of the older model the different finish was a conscious decision and nothing to do with cost. The “shimmer silk” finish and logo are very striking but hard to photograph, the casual looking picture above took me a couple of hours of lightning and a high end studio camera setup to shoot like that, I have to do the same for the AS-2000...

Another example that stability /no unwanted resonances go hand in hand with good audio reproduction.
Although i also like the modern look of the NVS turntable and the Air force one designs

the analogue side of the house is something that does not resonate with me..
but i've got to say that AS2000 is an impressive piece....the geek in me just loves the attention to detail.
