Default ehoove finally gets a modern Turntable

After much thought and research, I finally bought a modern turntable. My affinity to German tables continues, so with out further ado here we go:

Presenting my Clearaudio Solution Turntable, that has been upgraded to the Master Solution Status. Added were the following:

-Clearaudio Reference motor
-CMB ceramic magnetic bearing upgrade
-upgrade to thicker 38mm platter
-upgrade to Clearaudio Quadro clamp
-upgraded original plastic armboard to aluminum
-upgraded original plastic feet to clearaudio stainless steel spikes
-upgraded spike-protectors to Black Diamond Racing Pits MkIII
-upgraded pulley

The table sports a Graham Robin Arm and a New Dynavector DV20x2 MC. it will support a second arm which will be my Jelco750/AT33 Mono Ltd. Edition.

Early observations:

Amazing attack and sustain with crystal clear smooth top end. Bass is solid and accurate with lot's of warmth and emotion. Midrange is silky smooth and deep with amazing detail. Presentation is refined and exhilarating at the same time. Just Wonderful!!

Needless to say my afternoon will be spent dialing it in and having a ball!

Regards,
Jim
