EMT sometimes considered the best idler drives on the planet, and yet even EMT put belt drive way third, idler second and after serious r&d direct drive at the top.
Teres have arrived at the same conclusion, and it should be interesting to watch the faithful convert belts to Verus over the next few months. Time will tell if the Verus rim-drive is good, bad or indifferent.
Others are working on ways to improve the performance of decks like the 301, using modern ideas and technology to create better motors, bearings etc, and the Verus will be another player in that mix. It won't work so well with the strobe platter though! :)
Verus may become the most important analog development for many years, cheap clones from China will be powering flea-market PL12Ds and allowing any vinyl fan to witness the sound that made records worth listening to in the first place.
The blue touch paper has been lit ................. :)
Or not, well in that case just leave the PL12D and take the Lenco. :)
