The low mass approach has definite theoretical benefits, but low mass coupled with a heavy platter is asking for trouble from Isaac Newton. "For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction", which means that there will be a tendency for the base to rotate counter to the rotation of the platter. Perhaps and most likely the spike feet digging into the shelf will counter-act that opposite force.
Anyway, I would never say that this turntable could not be great sounding, but it is indeed difficult to understand why it costs close to $45,000, in US dollars.
