General comments on SOTA

It seems that soya receives very little play in most forums with vpi and wt getting a lot of nods. Is this a commentary on sound quality or just the conservative non flashy nature of sota it self?

I've always liked sota for their relative lack of tweakiness and stability. I'm considering a sota but my local dealer is a linn rega fan and set up is an issue

Any comments

I have always been interested in SOTA vacuum hold down technology. When I was first exposed to their product back in the 80's, I think that was their claim to fame, so to speak.

Now I notice they have a line of non-vacuum versions that use traditional record clamps.

Can anyone comment on the effectiveness of the vacuum hold down system vs a clamping system? Is the mechanical clamp down system as good as vacuum and is this a case of diminishing returns?
