Dr. Feickert Turntable


I am considering purchasing the Dr. Feickert Volare turntable. 
 Any owners out there who wish to comment, or non-owners for that matter?

j_husker,

I have a new Hana ML and a new Sutherland 20/20 phono preamp I’m planning to use.

I’ve ordered the Feickert Volare turntable from Music Direct
Here are the details:

Feickert - Volare (Origin Live Silver Mk4A Tonearm, Walnut)   1            
Origin Live - Silver MK4A 9.5" Tonearm with Mounted VTA Lifter   1   In-Stock        
Feickert - Volare Turntable, No Tonearm (Walnut w/Aluminum Platter)

Music Direct is setting it up and installing my cartridge.

Thank you everyone for your help.

rsf507,

I have a tracking force gauge, but am not sure what other parameters to check.

I am having the Feickert turntable and Origin arm set up by my local stereo establishment, not by Music Direct. It should be done properly.

Well, it’s assembled. Right away I, hearing a big improvement. Of course it could be new component syndrome. But right now it sounds gorgeous.

One big problem: Anti skating mechanism was missing from the order.
‘Right now listening without it.
How much am I missing without it?

I’m, of course, getting a replacement.
