Sorry, I'm being thick - I dont get how it works or how you use it. Is it for the stock platter or any platter on a techie ?

It's excruciating. There seems to be some genuinely interesting ideas and engineering but phrases like: "A glass inner ring is constrained by an outer ring quickly to control the motion." are such a turn-off. A method of writing that assumes your audience is intelligent but knows little, and a generous amount of pictures is a fail-safe formula for communication.

I think the image on the page is the 'machined central hub'. This piece has the magnet attached and is placed on the bearing. The rest of the platter then locates on top of this via the recessed outer lip.
Very similar to the LP12 set up.
Looks like a very sensible design.
For me it was interesting to see that there is no mention of the FX-1200 any more.
That means that I have quite a rare tonearm now.
The picture on the website looks like the bearing, so I will be interested to see the response.
