The brass weights are added to give the platter extra mass and subsequently more momentum when spinning. This greatly improves speed stability and helps keep wow and flutter to a minimum.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFree standing motor unit.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe motor unit used to drive the turntable is completely separate to the turntable, meaning it doesn’t touch the turntable in anyway. The only connection between the motor and the turntable is the drive belt that drives the platter. This stops any noise or vibrations created when the motor is running, getting through to the sensitive parts of the turntable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeighted pendulum style sub chassis.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHanging on the three suspension springs, this provides a rigid dense platform to mount the main bearing, platter and tonearm assembly, ensuring there is no movement between them, while also acting as a ‘resonance \/ vibration sink’ drawing away unwanted vibrations from the sensitive elements of the turntable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eInverted oil circulating main bearing.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eContrary to traditional designs, our main bearing has the point of rotation at the top of the assembly, not at the bottom. This orientation allows us to fully lubricate the inside of the entire bearing while the platter is turning. We achieve this by way of a modified Archimedean screw that we machine into the inside bore of the bearing. The oil is drawn from a reservoir at the base of the main bearing up to the thrust ball at the top, fully lubricating as it goes, it then returns to the reservoir via a waste hole drilled into the bearing spindle. Lubricating the precision parts of the main bearing in this way means that any potential for noise or vibration created by the rotation of the platter is avoided.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLow contact area feet.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe solid aluminium feet of the turntable are shaped so the area in contact with the supporting surface is very small, this is done to minimise the transfer of vibrations from the supporting furniture into the turntable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eWeight\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003e10kg\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e49cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDepth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e37.5cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e13.5cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eREVIEWS\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e“It’s a powerful package of fine sound, peerless build and finish and genuine upgradeability – but at the price, it’s nigh-on unbeatable”\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHi-Fi World\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e“The gains in detail, space and neutrality over the generic LP12 sound made the extra insight available with the Gyro SE a worthwhile trade”\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHi-Fi News and Record Review\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\"Sonically, the Gyrodec SE is right up there with the best.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHi-Fi Choice\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch1\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/h1\u003e\n\u003ch1 data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/h1\u003e","brand":"Michell","offers":[{"title":"Silver","offer_id":48894425530611,"sku":null,"price":7490.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0429\/5301\/5446\/products\/gyro_se_gallery_-_4-1920w.jpg?v=1737375175","url":"https:\/\/www.heynowhifi.com.au\/products\/michell-gyro-se-turntable-with-a-tecnoarm","provider":"HeyNow Hi-Fi","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
