Mag-Lev Turntables


I’m very interested in this turntable as many are. Fair warning, $2200 is the regular price, go to their site. You won’t find the model recently advertised here for $3100, that’s a fake markup and then said to be “on sale”. Just buy them direct when new, no value in a pass through seller who is not local to you and offers no other value. If you do have one, how is it?😊

There are several conventional turntables where the platter is wholly or partially supported by a magnetic field, but in the vertical direction only.  All of them have a horizontal mechanical bearing of the usual type.  Those have nothing to do with the one particular unique turntable that is being batted around on this thread.
If someone gave me one, I would set it up and have it running somewhere in my house as a piece of kitsch, like one of those lava lamps, because it is fascinating to watch.  But I wouldn't use it to play LPs.  That's just me.
Just read the fine print in the owners manual.  That alone would be enough to discourage me.  If you want a conversation piece, then maybe.
