I've heard this piece of kit at the LHR show and can confirm it is indeed worth every penny. It did not do bad against its 28k Jubilee brother either.
Import is accuracy of timing and environmental isolation. At the show an RDC puck was used as well to further dampen unwanted vibration. Genius, works a treet.
Sadly I'd already invested in my TT and have bought some cones and a mat and modified it - massive improvement. Wish I'd bought the Thorens instead.
As for looks I close my eyes when listening and so do not care.. as for clunky gear changes who cares, beats changing a belt.
Love it love it love it.
This turntable's even, cohesive and fluid sound makes listening an absolute pleasure
If you’re into aesthetics, the Performance will catch your eye in a major way
