Looks amazing - what are the feet on the LP12?

Looks nice.
I guess the metal sounds very different to the normal wood surrounds.
Never seen one before and like the fluted base.

Is it for lp12 only. Maybe it will work on my phonosophie as well?
Looks definitely very nice - your lp12 is fantastic!

It does anyone would be forgiven for thinking that going from timber to aluminium might mean a harder sound but the reverse is true.

Cable management at your system must be even more hell as in my system

This combo definitely sounds more open and focused than my tricked up Solstice did ( good as that was). The noise floor is so very low now.
The SME was just somewhat bland in comparison.

You’ve no idea😂. Full rebuild is a four hour job.

Congratulations @Cohen1263. A simply stunning LP12. It and your system look wonderful. I’m sure you will have many happy hours ahead.

Thank you for your kind words Ian 
My ND555 is great but it will never usurp top vinyl. Going six months without a turntable and now hearing this LP12 in my system reaffirms that view.

This Stiletto gives a more modern look to the lp12., and very probably better isolation from vibrations.
Congrats !

Thanks Rooster and no the SME judgement wasn’t meant for you my friend. I have had an extensive listen to the Solstice and around three months with the SME 20 and neither match this deck even though it will improve over the next couple of weeks as it runs in.

Looks great. Visiting Peter tomorrow to start my LP12 journey at a somewhat lower level

That is really true! Currently my nd555 is ahead, but there is only a bit effort necessary to turn the page for my TT
And as I am a rare species who even owns a disc flattener (afi flat2), I should focus on vinyl soon. Lp12 would be great as well as Vertere. But I think yours has some cost…

Interesting - does it work? Been looking at the ORB.
