FS: Michell turntable with HR PSU plus SME V tonearm

[myrman]

I bought this upgraded Gyro (Gorbe) earlier this year but am now having a change in direction. It’s a great setup and with the SME V being regarded as the ultimate pairing. Comes with the excellent HR power supply (RRP £799)

To save me retyping there is a good description of these items and relevant upgrades here:

https://theartofsound.net/forum/showthread.php?65325-FS-Complete-vinyl-playback-setup-Turntable-Arm-and-cart

Main points to note:
05/2015 - New spec Motor unit, Springs and Springcovers from Michell Engineering
03/2016 – Orbe black double spider plinth to improve isolation and Orbe feet to fit double plinth
6/2016 - Fitted Gerd Pedersen SME Armboard upgrade. For further details see here: Pedersens Gyro.dk - Armboard Upgrade
08/2016 - Replaced Gyro platter with Orbe platter and improved clamp.

Although that listing is a few years old now the turntable is still in excellent condition. It comes boxed as does the SME tonearm.
There is no external tonearm cable with the arm.

I am asking £3800 for the turntable + SME V (Turntable and arm only, no cartridge or external tonearm cable)

I may consider splitting these item. PM me if interested in one or the other.

Ideally I would like this to be collected from NN12. Otherwise meetup or postage at cost.

With an asking price of £3,800, we need to see a lot more photos of the turntable, taken from all angles; especially of the SME V arm.

Thank you.

this is a Gorbe , not an orbe wrong motor pod and psu , for it to be an orbe

I know. I have asked one of the mods to remove Orbe from the title.

Outstanding sounding Turntable,
and the arm is sublime.

I know,
I fitted it! :)

Sold this when I had to adjust my financial priorities, and digital convenience ensnared me, otherwise I'd have kept it.
I bought it as a silver Gyro with SR Power Supply,
I had strong back and forth with Michell Engineering when I was doing all my upgrades.

Spent a lot on this, even before fitting an SME V to it, so for the asking price this is a stone cold bargain.

Buy with confidence Folks.
Its a doozy.

Willing to split these now.

£1600 for the turntable
and
£2300 for the SME V
