Hi
thanks for the qualification. i was thinking more of Garrard 301,401 & Loricraft 501 idler wheel tables when i made my comment. i would agree that the direct-drives i have heard are drier than garrard bunch .. to me they are also flatter and steelier... less flattering but in some ways more naturally close to the sound of club music which is often dirty. i do have some other idler wheel
tables (Lenco, Rek-o-kut) but have not had a chance to set them
up seriously.... will be interesting to see how they compare with
the garrards. all the direct-drives & idlers (except the 501)
have been used in heavy mass birch plywood plinths.
