Wave Kinetics NVS Turntable - Stereophile Review

Tapping on a section of a turntable that is above the isolation built into the TT and/or platform does not tell you how it isolates from floor born vibrations.

Of course precise speed and stability of speed are a good thing. Why would you want to add to the imperfections inherent in vinyl. Less error the better.

I completely agree with Dover regarding the VPI Classic. I had a Classic 1 and the motor and belt are the weakest link and far from SOTA.

No one is perfect but some of Fremmer's statements just make no sense to me.

The Kuzma 4 point is interesting. I have not heard one yet. There seems to be contradictory statements about it's bass performance. The two reviews I've seen both say the bass is it's strong suit. But I seem to remember a couple of posters on this forum say the bass was soft. Maybe they will chime in.

As with any piece of gear it is best to hear it for yourself.

Halcro, No one is infallible. Even Fremer. Do you accept as gospel everything he prints?

I enjoy his writing and do appreciate his contribution to analog and audio. His reviews are better than most and I like the fact that he compares gear with his reference gear. He is not afraid to write what he thinks either. This does not mean I have to agree with everything he writes.

I did not see where anyone disagreed with his conclusions regarding the comparison between those three tables. Not that it matters but I have heard the NVS several times and the Onedof once. It is impossible to make any real comparisons as they were not in the same system. I would like to hear the Continuum.

I find it counter productive to put too much stock in one mans opinion. I have been burned before as most of you have I'm sure. Everybody has different tastes and preferences.
