Customer comments : -
Had things up and running shortly after our
call. The front right pulley settled down and
has remained that way.
I am in shock how quick and steady the DC motor
with 3 pulleys comes speed, with no bearing
rock, and even hardly any suspension movement.
I let it run overnight to get the bearing and
oil set.
The Sara is a perfect fit both sound and
cosmetic wise (see attached pics
).
It reminds me of my Naim ARO days for sure.
I checked the resonance frequency with a test
record and it is 12hz, which is normal range.
It sounds phenomenal right from the start.
Tighter than a Lp-12, without the mid bass
bloat. Plus it’s much cooler, lol. I am running
sans Top Plate now because I love looking at all
the carbon fibre. I may look into having a piece
of clear glass cut for a top plate.
The suspended chassis is very effective an
isolation, a rap on the top plate does not get
picked up by the stylus. This in NOT the case
with an LP-12. Also I was worried about foot
fault, but so far so good!
Keep me posted on the split platter mod.
Possibly it will be done so the clamp and
platter can ship together. Thanks again, I love
the Anni’! Let me know if I can help you in any
way to market the Anni to future customers.
It's a winner.

Yes, I
do think it sounds a lot better.
I would
say that there is probably a lower level of
background noise, venue acoustics are clearer,
the infamous “tunes in bass” are clearer. I
think dynamics of music are probably handled
more cleanly with less congestion in louder
passages and layering of instruments- harmony
clearer as a result.
So far
listened a mixture of original and digitally
re-mastered recordings. Mixture of
classical/opera/ska/rock (well, Dire Straits),
Ska and George Melly.
