the Apolyt turntable
« on: April 03, 2018, 11:49:55 PM »
Just saw this on YouTube and thought you might find it interesting. The price will be between 260,000 to 280,000 Euros. This reminds me of the huge speakers that were posted here a few months ago. I’d be curious how this tt would compare to a Caliburn with a SAT arm.

Wow over 1000lbs. Overkill or state of art effort ? Not many customers around for that around here. Just how much better can it be ?
  Actually a subject I have been thinking about allot lately.

  Not this one Nick. To be honest the Kuzma StobiS with the Stogi 12 VTA adj. arm has yet to meet its match. We used an Air force One at CES [ 110K ] which sounded great however IMHO not 103K better. The cart. made the biggest difference. The Lamm reference phono stage did not hurt matters either.

Charles, that seems like excellent value for the money. What cart do you use with the Stogi? I found this link regarding a slightly modded Stigi

  At the moment a Goldnote Boboli MC. Looking at either a Myajima or Kiseiki MC.  For mono a Grado using Linn LP12 TT.
