Nottingham Analogue Space turntable with Ace Space arm
Simply the best value turntables I've ever heard in my life. Period. Not inexpensive, but if you want genuine world-class performance which will NEVER leave you wishing you'd chosen something else, this is your analog front end. Tom Fletcher's now sold 50,000 tables world wide to those who know what music really means. Tom's reference is LIVE MUSIC played in his home on a weekly basis. That's the reference his tables are tuned to. As a result, I noticed from my first listen to his products years ago, that this is one of the only tables i've EVER heard at ANY price that makes all other table/arm/cartridge combos sound mechanical by comparison. Sound like hype? Schedule a shootout with your table, and I'll bring it over...but don't do it until you're ready to write me a check for a Nottingham! The SpaceDeck's tonearm is actually TWO ARMTUBES, one inside anther, and BOTH ARE DAMPED INSIDE - no vibrations are going to ruin the sound of this rig, and also NO tweaky damping trough required - one of the only UNIPIVOT bearing designs I've ever heard of that is so inherently free of chatter that NONE IS REQUIRED. With a Shelter or Koetsu cartridge, this rig will track ANYTHING, and sound great doing it.
