Without doubt, the biggest analog upgrade I have experienced is the External Dereneville turntable motor. I have about a dozen turntables in the house, from emt, to versa, 124, 301, 401, two oracles etc.
I purchased the engine after reading about it on a German forum. Mr. Reiner, who also writes here, is extremely courteous and competent, he convinced me immediately, and so I bought it, also for a future project.
Making a long story short, the results have been stunning, beyond my imagination.
in particolar, with the old but nevertheless valid Versa Dynamic, and his spettacolare contact-less air bearing, I experienced one of the most impressive analog sound ever ( and I heard a lot of topclass turntable, trust me). I am deeply impressed.
What changes? Practically everything, this ultra high class Turntable Motor is working exactly in the ideal intersection between Time and Space, where the music signal is born.. a overwhelming flood of musical informations, timbre richness, and a 3d imagine, really breathtaking.. (My actual sistem is formed by Viva Audio top line pre e pre phono, Fm Acoustics amp, Tad R1, cables mit Oracle Max etc)
In one word: Chapeau, Mr. Reiner!
