Got the Volare 25th recently along with the Auris W10A Tonearm. It’s solidly built and performs better than my Luxman PD-151 Mk2. Maybe my expectations were too high, but I was hoping the dual motors would be silent. It’s a bit audible when standing right in front of it, but it’s not noticeable when you step a few feet away from it. Apparently the upper tier turntables like the Firebird should much quieter. I like the Auris 10" tonearm that came along with it. Having the azimuth adjustment is big and I now consider it a must have feature. My WallySkater shows that my tonearm’s internal horizontal forces and mechanical resistance measurements are right within the acceptable range and I was able dial in anti-skating perfectly.
