Over the course of the past 2+ years we have been slowly, quietly and meticulously developing the world's first, state-of-the-art heavy billet chassis plate for the legendary Garrard 401 idler drive platform. The first production run of Artisan Fidelity Garrard 401 Statement (v.2) chassis plates has just been announced. The immediate audibly increased clarity, channel separation, lower noise floor and improved transparency as a whole made our design efforts well worth the tedious, time consuming and costly endeavor.
Greetings Mike!
Yes, as a Statement model, Stainless Steel billet chassis material will be made available.
Absolutely, for heavy platter top surface interface choices, Pure Copper, Stainless Steel, Magnesium Alloy and Aircraft Aluminum 7075-T61 series are optional.
thanks. from my extremely fond recollections of my Dobbins 301, and with all the work you've done to take the 401 so far, got to be just an excellent performing tt. I hope to hear one at some point.
thanks.
Chris is the real deal. He built me a Lenco in piano black a few years ago and I still marvel at the build quality and sound. I can only dream of the sound from the new 401.
