Actually as I recall that table is old. It was advertised in at least one of the audio magazines some years ago but I don't know if it ever went into production. I think the company that manufactured it made isolation devices.

According to the ad, it was made by a "high-end" telescope company and this is a one off.

The table is made by Van Slyke engineering. He is well known for anti-vibration products for telescopes.

I wonder if it has a Fetzer valve?

At least he has some credentials. Who knows, maybe the damn thing sounds great.

A turntable with balls that looks like the rotary chamber of a gatling gun. I like it, with three tonearms, sounds like a deal if everything is in good working order.

I remember when this was touted years ago to much audiophile amusement, but the operating principles are sound, and construction looks top notch.

Looks very steam punk to me.

It would be worth more if it was advertised as a "Sculpture" than a turntable!
