    The thing is some people don't necessarily notice these things so it could be normal. I know the Linn Radikal motor makes a noise, so anythings possible. Obviously this is a totally different motor so who knows.

    On a funnier note, I ordered a Tiger Paw Vulcan wall shelf for my LP12 and Roger included a trade price list with all his products in the box by mistake. Might be handy ammunition for getting a discount on a Tranquility later on!



    I've asked the chap on pf to double check. He's goimg to tonight have a listen exactky how i've ssked him to by putting his ear almost on the spindle.

It's a shame that Oyaide are so expensive and that's the only reason why I don't stock them any more, but I'll always keep a couple of well used examples to hand for my own use.
    Try something like the Denon PCL-5.

    Not wishing to dampen proceedings but I've stuck my ear near enough on to the spindle of my SP10 and I can't hear anything. It will be interesting to see what happens when Technics respond. Looks fantastic BTW.

    Wow. That's either promising or concerning.

    Personally, I wouldn't expect any noise at all from the Techy. Especially at that price!

    I've just sent them an audio clip. I think this one will have to go back also. I don't understand what could make noise with a brushless induction motor?
