Best you couple your 'magnetic drive TT' with an electron microscope base, only course if you have the $50,000. Don't fall for the hype, and stealing, that these hi end TT promise.
magnetic drive turntables
Transrotor Orion turntable
This form of magnetic drive is getting more use in high end turntables, such as the Clearaudio Statement and EAR Disk-Master. I see it as a variation of direct drive, except, in this case, the subplatter is being belt-driven by three motors. In plain English, the top platter is magnetically driven by a belt-drive turntable at the bottom. Imaging replace the whole motor pod with a stator or direct-drive motor at the bottom, what you have, in essence, is a direct drive turntable. There are many possibilities in this implementation and it's nice to see some novel ideas.
