Teres Audio Verus Direct Couples Motor, Anyone?


I am now using what is considered the Teres Audio 255 in Cocobolla with the lead loaded Acrylic platter. I am considering this new motor. Could anyone who has experienced the improvement post there findings here. I am very intrigued by the concept.
thanks,

'I followed the instructions Teres sent with the motor. Putting a strobe disc on the turntable. Turning on the motor controller and then adjusting it until the strobe disc held rock steady for a full 60 seconds.'

Once you start playing your favourite LP, the platter speed slow down :) !!!!!

Since the O ring is constantly places against the platter, it will develop a flat spot after you stop playing. In the long run, there will be flat spots all over the O ring. I wonder how it might affect the sound.

With that kind of price, I can get a classic idler wheel TT with $$$ to spare :) !
