Any new turntable brands we should pay attention to ?

Scroll down to middle of page for video.

Soulines looks very interesting to me. The US distributor is relatively close to me, so hopefully I will check it out in the near future.

Hello Eric.

... how far above the top surface of a table’s platter is the top of the Terminator?

The top of the arm assembly is the VTA adjustment knob, about 3.5" above the top of the platter. The gantry suspending the cabling is another 3" higher, but this is highly adjustable.

And how far to the right of the platter’s center spindle does the arm's support structure extend?

The distance from the spindle to the right hand side of the arm structure (the levelling screws) is 11", but this can be modified by +/- 0.5" by positioning the arm base on it's tower.

Neither measurement is affected by setup parameters. Hope this helps. Terry

Great, thanks Terry. I've been in touch with Vic, and it's on!

Good news, bdp. Keep us posted!
