c1, there are some similarities w the also-discontinued TTWeights Gem rim drive tts from a few years back.
Massy plinth, heavy oversize platter, reliance on high torque direct rim-drive.
The big difference w the Salvation is Vic the designer eschewed the TTW Teres Verus-style motor using servo and O-rings, for an analogue, non-servo, non-feedback motor, using an oversize Delrin rim wheel.
The Verus could never be relied on by Vic. Additionally, he found any servo feedback introduced both a cold colouration, and bass imprecision.
So he went for an overspecced motor, and speed controller that needs tweaking for accuracy every few days. Set and forget (well, for 48 hrs at least).
Vic's expts w speed/servo feedback control always produced a worse sound despite measurements being "superior".
