@richardbrand Yes the lowering device works as you mentioned, simple device. I have just gotten used to manually cueing over course of time. Holding right past the cartridge itself, finger lightly under arm. Not much room but with practice it works!
Does any Audiogon member have a Holbo air-bearing turntable?
I am fascinated by the Holbo air-bearing turntable with its linear tracking air-bearing arm and air bearing platter system. I have not read an unfavourable review, and many reviewers recommend it as a reference-level turntable at an audio bargain price.
If you have one, what has your experience been like? What country are you in? Is yours the Mk1 or the Mk2? What was the set-up experience like? What cartridge(s) have you used, and what would you recommend? How do you keep it clean? Has it been reliable?
Looking forward to hearing real-life experiences!

"In the pictures I have, there is no finger lift at the cartridge end." frazeur1- could this simple VPI lift be used? I am following this thread because I'm looking for a little audio excitement.
I'm waiting for richardbrand to pull the trigger and get it, so I can read his assessment. I may get impatient and take the plunge and get my review in first! |
@richardbrand Yes on where I manually cue. Tablejockey, no idea how the VPI lift might work, if cheap enough might be worth a try! |
