Saw these at a local dealer, they are a fine looking table.

I'm really enjoying it - since its been awhile since I've had a turntable I'm just shocked at how quiet it is, both between cuts but also, if the record is clean, no pops etc. Blacker than black. Also great dynamic range. I think I like it best for live recordings that aren't processed - Neil Young at Massey Hall for example. I'm finding it hard to describe it vs a good digital source, but I prefer it. There may be a bit of placebo effect going on here, but I don't think so. Here"s a shot of it on top of its new Mapleshade isolation platform that I discussed in another post.

I may have to amend the comment about preferring recordings of live music on this TT. I just put on Govt Mule - By A Thread, and OMG this puppy just rocks. Bass slam, but tight, and Warren Haynes guitar is just singin'. Wow...
