Blimey Randall-ha he must be getting on now--a survivor alright!--I recall climbing those Stairs for some AQ cabling in the late 70's

The Transcendence is certainly a departure from AJ's other 'tables, it was mentioned he was 'going metal' on his next design but the form factor threw me when I finally saw it in Randy's room...I've heard that in recent years AJ and Mikey were more like frenemies over the acyrilic thing, that and the time AJ visited Mikey's place and noticed his speakers were wired out of phase. one wonders how long he was listening to his system like that
RIP AJ.

I can't say I was ever a fan of acrylic for a table of a substantial investment. I feel that wood and plastic mostly don't belong in the construction of a high end audio instrument.
Having said that -the new table is gorgeous. Such a shame that Conti never saw it released to market. RIP.Phono: Aesthetix Io Eclipse with 2 Power Supplies and Volume controls

Plastic was used for good reason, for its non resonant quality. Metal has to be damped in order for it to work with tables. AJ knew what he was doing.Comment

Sure. Doesn't mean that I like the aesthetic though. There are lots of ways to deal with metal and turntables. The Basis line of tables sound great though.Originally posted by jeffy View PostPhono: Aesthetix Io Eclipse with 2 Power Supplies and Volume controls

Lots of metal: 400 lbs total between the SME and Vibraplane with ballast plate.
I love the look of the new Basis table. Does anyone know the price?
