Absolute Monster SAM Turntable

It may be a great turntable. The engineering may be excellent. The design, however... um, de gustibus no disputandum.

In my view however, they should remove about 70% of the doo-dahs, rethink proportions, and stop thinking shiny metal is attractive because it's shiny.

A very superficial critique — and without even hearing it to boot — but TTs are also works of art, kinetic sculptures — and I was a professional designer — so I care about the aesthetics, crazy as that may be.

Have anyone had any experience with The Sinner? 

portoalegre...now that you've had some time with your SAM table what are your thoughts/feelings about it??  I also am considering the Reference table, hopefully with two arms, so your feedback would be appreciated...may help other vinyl lovers on here too.                                  Thanks!

With their earlier model of SAM I think guys are inspired by Micro Seiki.

hdcls3 ... I'm very very happy with my SAM Gold Reference Monster table! It's a fantastic table, with a very good price! I don't like, however,  their arm, so I'm using two Kuzma 313 arms on this table, and the match is fantastic!
