Turntable Wars- Reviewers take sides

Seems that there's an undeclared war between the top analogue writers on just who makes 'The Best Turntable in the World'.....
For the last 9 years Michael Fremer has stood firm behind the Continuum Caliburn but now Jonathan Valin has thrown down the gauntlet

whilst Peter Breuninger gives you his 'guarantee' for the Kronos

and Roy Gregory goes for the Grand Prix Monaco

But hold your horses....
There appears to be a new 'Player' about to be introduced which may shake the established wisdom (although at a price of around 280,000 Euros I wonder how many reviewers will get one?)...

My Harry's Workshop Classic 3 was spinning some holiday vinyl not a few hours ago! Looking forward to more over the coming days. BTW, HW is not kidding. I was, as they say, gobsmacked when I saw all of the phenomenal stuff at his house, and had a chance to hear (among other things) master tapes on his reel to reel that just made me shake my head. The VPI tables we listened to presented the music very very convincingly by comparison.
