In Reply to: RE: Why turntable bearing shaft and spindle machined as one piece? posted by John Elison on October 23, 2016 at 13:45:26
John Ellison: "If I did care about it, I believe it's better to have the spindle and bearing machined as a single piece because I believe it will absorb and damp unwanted vibrations better and thereby produce lower overall noise."
So tightly coupled to the source of noise will lower noise floor? Give me a break.
You certainly don't care but you just can't resist posting picture of your turntable for the umpteenth time!

I don't believe the platter bearing is a source of noise in modern turntables. At any rate, my Sota Millennia is the quietest turntable I've ever heard in terms of groove noise and music emanating from a black background. On the other hand, if you've never heard a low noise turntable I can understand discontent, but I guarantee it has nothing to do with the spindle and bearing being made in one piece.
You asked a question, but it's obvious you didn't really want to hear any answers that you don't agree with. That's why I called your question a diatribe. I realized your purpose immediately. You simply wanted to criticize all turntable manufacturers that didn't build their platter bearings to your specifications because you think you know more than anyone else. The fact of the matter is you're very ignorant.
Your ignorance is further demonstrated by objecting to pictures of turntables in the vinyl asylum. That's laughable! People post pictures of their turntables all the time. If you don't like my turntable, don't look at it.
As I stated earlier: "To each his own!" Apparently, you don't get that, either. Such is life!
Good luck,
John Elison
By the way, you're the one who used the word "diatribe" first before giving your reasoning so please spare me the lecture.To be fair, I never owned any table of the quality and expense of yours. Maybe it doesn't matter once it reaches that price point. So in that, you have a point! That also acquits me of having an agenda or pretending to know more than other turntable makers. I simply asked a question.

I think the answer to your question is this, the chain from the stylus to the record to the platter to the platter bearing through the chassis to the arm board to the arm base and through the arm bearings to the arm tube to the head shell to the cartridge..... needs to be as tight and free from play as possible.

Here's the perfect turntable for you. Neither the spindle or the platter connect to the bearing and it's well within your price range. ;-)
Haha! Good one!
I saw that one before. Good luck to them getting that one funded!
It would be fun to adjust the floating height for VTA. :-D
