STST Motus II in the house

Are you able to post more about your listening impressions of the MOTUS ii and the WAND MASTER arm combination?
This combination was great, but listening is too long ago to give a detailed description.

Nice Motus! Quick questions:

1) what is that thing you have over your TV? I have a similar set up and was thinking of ways to put something over my TV for my audio

2) How much was the Motus in the burl walnut config you have?
I had a living room system. I didn't want to look at the TV so I bought a track with rollers. It may have been for a pocket door? I forget. Basically a light aluminum I beam with stops on the end and rollers. I used straps of steel bolted to the roller, rhen drilled to attach to the side of a painting frame. It roled to either side to watch TV, or to the center to hide the TV. I loved it.

I had a partial trade on used amps with the dealer when I bought the Motus II. I had the Vertere tone arm. I bought an upgrades PS for the motor. I don't know how much that matters. I had to do a little sanding and filling of the feet to the cover so that it easily slipped in and out so I could either tilt it up or lift it off to play.
All in all, great table from my limited knowledge. It slaughter my Rega RP6. I had the Verter arm on the RP6. I had even remote mounted the motor. Vertere is way better.

Thanks! Great idea on the TV, I know the kit your are talking about for pocket doors I installed one years ago. Do you still have the table? Sounds like you don't from what you wrote but it's still listed in the signature.

yes I do. I don't have any vinyl set up at the moment. Only digital. I moved and have a dedicated room. But i don't use it much. Its not finished.

I won't ever sell it. I like it. It's the only table I have. I don't have an idea what I would do to get better. Contact Solypsa. He's who I got mine from.
