I have had the Anvil Convertible for 2 years. Jollypop red plinth and motor unit. Thing of beauty. I also have an alloy platform that Bruce designed for even more vibration control an mass. I use a Jelco 750D with a Zu-103R and a ZYX Yatra. I swap out that arm with an Audiomods series 5 and a Lyra Delos. I posted about my initial experience with the table on vinylengine.
The Anvil is a work of art and always sounds great. I think the speed stability is its greatest feature. I also love the magnetic armboards which allow me to swap tonearms rapidly.
It is heavy and requires a sturdy stand. The surgical silk drive will wear out and need replacement every so often. I've had mine on for about 6 months now so I am probably due to replace it.
Working with Bruce to craft a custom turntable is fun. I've learned a lot about turntables. He loves to talk shop.
I think he will have an exhibit at Axpona this year for those who are attending and want to see the table in person.
