Micro Seiki SX 8000 II

One of the best turntables ever built, the SX 8000 has been out of production for over 20 years, but stil commands prices of over $5000 on the rare occasion that they turn up on the secondhand market. This is one very solid table at over 90kg.

Micro Seiki SZ 1T

The rarest and best of the Micro Seiki turntables. Micro Seiki's tour de force was built in very small numbers in 1983-84. They rarely appear for sale, but the last one sold on eBay for around US$20,000. Keep saving DS.....:rolleyes:

cheers

Kuzma Stabi Reference (price around $9,000)

Using a sandwich plinth of aluminium and acrylic to dampen out unwanted resonances, this type of construction was revolutionary in 1990 when the Reference was first intoduced.

Kuzma Stabi XL (price around $20,000)

Kuzma Stabi S (Price around $1800)

A very well engineered (like all Kuzmii :rolleyes:) turntable and very hard to beat for the price.

Loricraft Garrard 501 Precision (Price around $25,000)

Out of the ashes, the Garrard name has been revived....at a price:o

Shindo Garrard 301 (Price around $20,000)

Take a legendary Garrard 301 turntable, refurbish and upgrade it, place it in a very heavy wonderfully crafted plinth, add a Shindo tonearm and you have this wonderful rebuild of a classic. Why DIY...?

cheers

No doubt an impressive machine from Mr. Conti but giving the product that title in this high end TT one-upmanship game is a touch over the top. Still it's in the eye of the beholder. May be to the Borg it is.;)
