Sound differences between Galibier and Teres


Aside from numerous remarks about theoretical advantages based on their construction, I've never seen anything in the way of descriptive impresssions regarding the "house sound" of the Galibier and Teres lines of turntables. I have encountered references to shoot-outs, so some of you must have managed to acquire a pretty fair idea as to the personalities of each table. I've finally reached the point where I'm ready to take the jump toward possibly acquiring one or the other, but I have no "sound" idea of what to go on. I do know that I prefer a more relaxed, very slightly softer presentation as opposed to one considered a bit cleaner/sharper in outline. That's all I'll say for now, other than to extend my thanks to any of you who can let some light in the door on this subject.

Doug Deacon, If you don't mind sharing; What exactly are you using for belt material? IOW, Is it 0.001" or 0.002" thick mylar? Are you using a tensioner?
What material is the pulley made from? I've seen numerous posts regarding the degree of importance you state when it comes to belt material but I have no idea what exactly you are personally using.
