    Hey drseid, you need to get a TT!!

    There is a new TT by Consonance.

    Forbidden City - Liu





    It looks like a great table and the specs and tech looks very attractive, except for Wow & Flutter of 2% (I think it's a misprint though). I guess it's suvjective but I think it looks, dare I say, "Tight".

    But at $2,400~$3,200 price tags, competition gets pretty tough. I think I would rather get a Scoutmaster or Gyro SE.
    Whatchu think, drseid? Com'on!!

    Quite tempting... along with the rest of the Forbidden City line from Consonance. My trouble would be finding enough things to play on it. Maybe I actually am too scared I *would,* leading me into another area where I spend every cent I have. ;-) I *does* look nice though... Hmmmmm

    it looks nice, and probably will sound nice too...

    But RED!!? that will fight with the other colors in my system

    I'd rather get a vpi though, as nice as this tt is...

    ah forget it anyways, I have to save money for speakers...

    I know some of you guys have seen this already, but...

    There is a guy on A'gon who is selling his modified Thorens TD-160.

    This TT just looks gorgeous.
