In my mind it seems like your getting the best from both worlds - at least in the cost bracket I'm living with. I cant really talk about esoteric stuff since I've never even heard any, but a detached belt motor with a control system seems to be a great finishing point for me with this turntable. I'm just curious what else a direct drive TT of equal quality to the belt system with motor control would have over it, if anything.
Can belt driven table mimickingdirect drive . . .
. . . If you use a system like a Phoenix Engineering PSU Eagle with their tachometer?
i just purchased and installed this on my VPI Scout. I run a Dynavector 20x2L to a Parasound JC3+ via PAD venustas phono interconnects. The sound was pretty good but I think by adding the Phoenix equipment is seems to have picked up pace, piano notes are more natural and string bass notes have a touch more definition. Is this what a direct drive table sounds like.
