Many thanks. She’s on the way. David Karmeli who makes American Sound Turntables will be doing the install. That is probably a few weeks away.

Yes, I think he likes the TechDAS.

It’s not here yet. Hopefully this week or early the following week.

David Karmeli from Utah will be flying in to set it up. David is a master at setting up TTS - should be he owns like 11 of them. And he also builds American Sound TTs. The new ones he is creating will sell in maybe the 200-300k region or so. Here’s a picture of his older/smaller model (AS2000). The base and platter weigh some 300k.

Hoping for the TechDAS’ safe journey and setup.

Wow that would be great! I don’t have the space presently or the finances to get the Zero. 500k! But the AF1 Premium is would be close to it. I may upgrade mine to a Premium later. The Titanium platter I hear is revolutionary …
