I have to say how much I appreciate you guys making this video in English. I think us brits sometimes take for granted how much more concentration is needed when setting up stuff like this in your second language. I also love how Gunter turned up after the heavy lifting was done. A man after my own heart. 😏
As a 80s teen, I grew up in the time of the Walkman and Discman. I remember how CDs were sold as the ultimate experience of clear sound (even when not full sound range), no scratches or surface noise. I'm not going to lie, I value a good sounding system, but I also value the ease of modern streaming and wireless choices. That said, music needs to be enjoyable regardless of how is being played. High-end system or transistor radio, if you are enjoying music and the experience of listening to it, you are doing it right. This said, Michael does it right. I always learn and get inspired for your passion for audio and music. Cheers from Cincinnati, Ohio.
That's a beautiful table, and an incredible system overall. In truth, it is the kind of system that most never have the chance to hear, some are lucky enough to hear a handful of times, and the very fortunate few have the chance to own. Enjoy it!
Beautiful rig Michael!! Your entire setup is a model for audiophile excellence! Thanks for allowing us to see your setup, makes your channel that much better!
Absolutely gorgeous table Micheal, congratulations and many happy hours of enjoyable listening. I remember how much I fell in love with my Gold Note Mediterraneao table when I first got it and setting it up....cheers....✌️
I remember when I bought my Goldnote Bellagio Reference Turntable with a Tri Planer Arm & Benz LPS cartridge, when it was being set up I was so nervous but excited, it took about 3 hours and sounds great
The attention to detail of the engineering is just mind boggling, the ways to adjust the feet and tone arm, the consideration that’s gone into all that is genius. Just seeing the mirror exactness of the sub platter made me feel gooey inside.
A wonderful pleasure of this "Aerolith turntable". A vivid emotion accompanied by a sense of accomplishment. Einstein who completely fulfills wishes and needs in space in time. :-) What luck 😃 that presents an ideal. Michael and Volker = 👌 ❤Heike
Wow amazing set up Michael Heavy work & intricate details for sure. Volker is a genius,a master craftsman.this turn table his crowning glory years in the making A Cool video Michael. All that remains is to enjoy the music ✊👍
Setting up your turntable, Michael, is truly an art and a testament to the intricacies of high-end equipment. Many overlook the precision needed, but you've nailed it. Kudos!
This is very interesting thanks for sharing your new purchase. I hope it gives many years of listening pleasure. I look forward to your thoughts and opinions after some time spent with it.
What a beautiful piece of machinery Michael, the amount of engineering and craftsmanship that went into your TT is mind boggling. It has the simple beauty that reminds me of a Porsche 356, but with the performance of a 911 GT3! I can't imagine how incredible it's going to sound, I'm looking forward to your sound reviews.
This TT is a piece of art… congratulations to the Manufacurer for having built such a gem, and to you Michael to enjoy it now through a complete burn-in journey.🤩
Congratulations. Following your dreams and accomplishing them is very important in life. I'm very happy for you. By the way, the turntable looks stunning
Truly a thing of beauty - I’m sure the sound will be equally as impressive when you have everything fine-tuned. Amazing engineering - that platter almost looks as if it were a Concorde spare 😊. We all look forward to on-going updates. Enjoy Michael.
...englisch ist ok, wegen der Verbreitung im Netz. Aber der eine Stein ist ja ein Bochumer Bub...Schön daß Du Spaß mit dem Teil hat...Analog ist schon eine richtige Wissenschaft und natürlich Leidenschaft die auch Leiden schafft - well done - well deserved !
Congratulations Michael and thank you so much for allowing us to join you in this incredibly exciting adventure. Your entire system is absolutely gorgeous and I truly enjoy all your audiophile reviews and videos. I have to ask though… if not too personal….how much does one need to spend to buy a system like yours? Suddenly my “high end” audio equipment seems…..lame. ;)
Gorgeous piece of engineering! Really beautiful, congrats! I,m really glad. that you got an extra mono arm, I remember that I suggested to you to do so when you started the channel! Enjoy!
Loved this video. A few months ago I was at my dealer and watched the Nagra factory technician assemble their new anniversary table, which was also interesting to watch.
I understand why high end turntable has to machine the spindle and bearing shaft as one piece where the bearing noise can transmit all the way to the record touching the spindle. I understand in budget turntable for easy centering but with expensive turntables they can certainly decouple the spindle from the bearing shaft.
Third watch of this video. Take everything in. Superb engineering. After decades of actually working in the field, Volker simply says, thus is the way to do it. No BS theories
@@Michael45RPM I've watched your channel for over a year now. Watch episodes repeatedly. The quality of the sound, the passion it evokes. Dare I say European sensibilities...
It would be great to hear your thoughts on this table now that you’ve had it for a good few months. Hopefully an updated video won’t be too long away? 👍
Stunningly beautiful 🤩 I’m also in the process of upgrading my Acoustic Signature Merlin table to the new Acoustic Signature Tornado with 2 tonearms, one with a stereo cartridge and the second one with a mono cartridge. So I can play all the mono records that I’ve been buying lately from your website 👍 Regards from Sweden
Beeindruckend! Ich wünsche dir viel Freude mit dem neuen Dreher. Bin gespannt, wie viel mehr Klangqualität der Mono-Tonabnehmer bei entsprechenden Platten bringen wird.
This is basically why I don't think I have anything to gain from listening to your music/sound reviews anymore - comparing my setup to yours, I'm pretty sure we're hearing completely different music/sound : ) appreciate everything you do, but this is the elephant in the room for me.
It’s a great looking piece of equipment, no I mean art… All the best and happy listening. I guess our journey is always evolving. Just one thing… I hope you don’t have to move your new turntable any time soon.😂😂😂
3:13 I like the alignment feature for the heavy platter installation. I have a similar design on my TT, also the graphite mat. I wonder if you could ask the designer why he settled on graphite, if he tried just placing the record on the aluminum platter, and if he makes the mats. I purchased a couple of graphite mats many years ago from a company called "Boston Audio" I believe he sold the company a few years ago. Anyway, hope you continue to enjoy the new TT!
Recommend using thin clear film for any shiny or chrome Use a CO2 mini cartridge and fitted to a mini appropriate nipple. Will you use both arms - stereo and mono? Nice unit.

thx a lot Stagger

Gotta love that copy of Richard D. James Album. A staple of any good music library ;)
Congratulations for your new turntable. Very, very nice.
Nice shiny new toy. Looks beautiful, solid, expertly engineered. Wishing you years of joyful listening.
Amazing - $110,000.00 for a turntable - I bet that is a very nice thing to behold. Materials and tech look stunning.
That was so much fun to watch this all come together and operational. Thank you for sharing!
my pleasure Daniel.. thx for taking the time!
What a fantastic turntable Michael, I hope it brings you many years of pleasure.
Wow it looks like your putting together and apparatus for NASA, I am so envious it must sound amazing congrats!
The attention to detail of the engineering is just mind boggling, the ways to adjust the feet and tone arm, the consideration that’s gone into all that is genius. Just seeing the mirror exactness of the sub platter made me feel gooey inside.
Well done sir, very happy for you, very impressive 👌👌
Truly a high-end experience. ❤
100% PROPER and I love it ! Well done Micheal !!
Very exciting and can’t wait for a report after break in and new speaker placement

Your friends in 1598 miss you!
i will be back! :-)
Bravo! Looks great :)
Congratulations on an amazing audiophile life 💪
I don't know if it has magical powers, but it looks magical. An engineering marvel with the best materials.
Also Congratulations Michael
Wow.....very interesting
I thought setting up my new cartridge the first time was difficult! Just kidding, this is really beautiful and I enjoyed watching the process.
Beautiful
