Richard, I actually did own a 67 Duetto in red, virtually the same car later depicted in The Graduate, except mine had real Minilite magnesium wheels, not the stock steel wheels with hubcaps seen on Dustin Hoffman's car. I bought it when it was already one year old, and I was a medical student in NYC. I drove it throughout med school, even in horrible weather and traffic in NYC. Parked it outside at all times, and it never let me down. In those years, of course, I was not a collector owner; the Duetto was my only car.
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!
