New Mag-Lev Turntable
On that same track, in order to align the cartridge correctly you would need to put blocks under the platter to raise it to the same height as when it is spinning. the website discusses the feet which are automatically raised when the table is not... 
The Palladian-A step beyond
not looking for a cartridge, so haven't read any reviews, but this AudioGon thread reminds me of a summer scene at the cottage. I am floating on the dock drinking beer, taking it all in with friends. All is good with the world. Then out of nowhere...

How much do you think the platter weighs?well thinking out loud this morning. It’s a "look Mom no hands" free floating design, so permanent magnets must be embedded in the platter in some pattern. The plinth portion is using electro magnetic force...

you know raymonda There is this subtle but important difference between "I think" and "I would think" :^)If a person says "I think"., it is a straightforward statement about their thoughts on the matter. However "I would think" means that the pers... 
Which Clapton CDs?
Do you feel that anything in the green range is reasonable quality recording or is there a number to stay above?Hi Dan the database can prove very interesting sometimes. For example there was a thread here on the new Adele album. Have a look at th...

AtmasphereI use master tapes as a reference, and have LPs and CDs made from the master tapes. @AtmasphereI acquired my Studer tape deck quite a while ago. Long before the market prices spiked. I am fortunate to have the Studer Canadian Rep being a... 
New Mag-Lev Turntable
One can’t help wondering why the inventors of the mag lev turntable didn’t also employ mag lev for the tonearm, which appears to be an easier task than mag leving the platter. Then the new mag lev turntable would be analogous to the air bearing ev...
