Does any Audiogon member have a Holbo air-bearing turntable?

@maxson 

Thanks, that is very reassuring!

I ordered some IsoAccoustics feet for my Garrard project from my normal dealer in Sydney, who said I would not need them if I bought his demo Holbo!  So his experience also suggests placement is easy.

By way of background, the Garrard is sprung (not as softly as a Linn) and I have removed the springs, using lots of mass with constrained damping instead)

Thanks to all here for your input.  I have decided to take the plunge and order the Holbo Mk2.

I will let you know what my experiences are like, but I am certainly not a golden-ear, nor even a proper audiophile.  I cannot afford a cartridge of similar quality to the table at the moment, so will be using an existing Audio Technica VM540ML cartridge for the time being.  Ultimately I hope to have my Garrard 301 alongside the Holbo for comparison purposes, but initially I think the Holb will replace the Garrard while I rewire its tone arm

Cheers, Richard

Congratulations! Looking forward to reading your review!

Where is Holbo manufactured? Tariff may dramatically increase costs for US buyers depending on country of origin. I say that as someone who was just burned on car parts coming from the UK, of all places.

Price for Holbo mk2 airbearing turntable is 4990€ , including DHL shipping , customs and taxes paid, delivery directly to your home worldwide , 2-year warranty and all unlimited support and assistance.
