hanss turntables


I'm wondering if anyone has heard the Hanss turntable, notably the T-60. I saw and heard this table in Denver and it seemed to do quite a lot for it's asking price.
It was tough to tell how good it was in the context of the room however.
I'd like to be able to compare it to a quality reference table.

I'm the owner of a consonance droplet lp 5.0 Mk2 (also chinese) and auditioned it (at home over a couple of months) against a sheu analog das laufwerk and an origin live sovereign, all of which are considered top turntables, and the consonance was comfortably the best performer - possibly due (amongst other things like the bearing, platter, plinth design) to the stand which, together with the TT weighs in at about 100kg. Tons of mass. Fantastic sound.

About the same price as the others but comfortably better overall.

So, I know what the best of the chinese turntables can do, and at ridiculously low prices for what you get.

So, spill the beans on the hanss then...
