walker proscenium


just heard a walker proscenium turntable at lloyd walker's. fantastic it was as if you could hear from in side the music as if you were there. at present i have a vpi hrx with a dynevectoy xv1s cart and thor pre phono. krell evo 202 pre amp krell evo 600 mono amps B&W 800D speakers quality cabling no major high end($). his just blows mine away. my question is it the parts, the whole, the way its set up or what? is it possible that his turntable can make that big of a difference as he says? thanks for you thoughts p.kogan

KOEGZ, I have lived with the Walker [Black Diamond arm added] for about two years now and can say it is the most amazing component I have ever experienced! I was a LINNIE for twenty years, so I subscribe to the "source first" philosophy of system building. IMHO the Walker simply gets more of what's on the record off. Yes, Lloyd is a master set-up artist, yes, it is worth getting the Talisman and Lloyds record cleaning kit [both are a big step forward with any TT] but the Walker , in and of itself, will transform your present system in ways it is hard to imagine! I have never been so sensitive to VTA adjustments [with the Walker changes are easy and dramatic] have never heard more deeply into recordings or been more aware of background singers or rhythm instruments.
YOU WILL NEVER REGRET THIS PURCHASE and Lloyd and Fred are available for questions and help, in addition to info. about improvements and updates. [I would also HIGHLY recommend the high definition links and SST][I set the table up myself and later had Lloyd and Fred come down and fine tune it] Keep us all posted.
