This table is much more elegant in person that the pictures do it justice. The plinth is extremely rigid and massive compared to the many pictures I have seen. So how does it stack up against the newest T-34 Torqueo Idler Drive?

Joshua, do let us all know your sound impressions as you test the Kinea.

I can quite imagine Red Sparrow on it thru AC phono could be quite something.

Short of a lottery win pointing me in AF0 or Vyger territory, this tt would be a natural next/final analog upgrade, at a Real World price.

It is an amazing match. Horns unlock the full upper frequency and the Red Sparrow elevates it to a whole other level. I am truly impressed by the quality and design of this table. Have explored a few flagship 100K options, but after listening to this table I find they offer very little that this table does so well. Understated elegance.

Exciting!! After hearing Albert Porters SP10 MK3, I'm all about direct drive tables.

Hopefully you have a listening party soon.

Yes Alberts hotrodded table is pretty damn cool especially the suspension. I will plan something in the near future
