As i look though the options of a TT i find some reallly high end (high cost) units that look like 'just the guts' of the turntable (motor, arm, controls). The question is - are they meant to be ultra-cool and be used all exposed like that or is the assumption that you build a custom chassis to house them?

Beautiful table and I would love to have one. The second picture show the Michell modified Rega arm with the lowered counterweight. If you are trying to purchase a table for $300 buy a used Rega Planar 2 and Later replace the stock counterweight with the Michell Technoweight counterweight. You will be surprised at the improvement. Trust me I know.
