Anybody heard Galibier or JC Verdier turntables?


I have finally narrowed my selection to these two turntables. HELP!!!!!!
Wondering if I could get some feedback on these turntables. Does anybody own these and or have any first hand experience. I am driving myself NUTS trying to decide between these two tables. The two tables are:

Galibier GAVIA or the JC Verdier LA PLATINE

Thanks

Hmm...The thread is six years old, but crazy old Mackris lingers on.

Thom is a friend who makes a pretty good turntable. :)
Yes, Thom is still around, he makes very good tables and I've been extremely happy with my Gavia/Tri-Planar combo for nearly five years now.

Agree completely.

Of course, Win makes a pretty 'darn' good turntable himself.

Is the Verdier common in USA? It is a French table, modified a few times in the last 20 years and mainly sold in Europe I think.
