I dunno, Ncdrawl, it has kind of an, er, "institutional" austerity about it. Minimal, as fresh as an antiseptic shower and a hole-probe before bedtime.

Hey. Less is more, eh?

RG, that's hysterical, but you're not far off:

"The Baasner turntable is a festival of stainless and acrylic and features a parallel tracking arm that floats in water, a syringe is supplied in order to adjust VTA, naturally. Other features include shields to deflect air movement and nylon thread drive via pulleys too numerous to count."

It's what the Feds confiscated out of an advanced meth lab in Riverside, California.

Look at this abomination that TT Weights is selling for $50K:

It spins records but also cooks rice part time.

It is a classic case of form and function meeting one another as a minimalist design. Whoever designed it is quite smart and knows what they are doing, besides possessing a sense of style.

I didn't think anything would top the sneeze guards and plumbing, but is that a RJ45 ethernet jack on your em...headshell?
