My buddy Rex says I need to buy one of these.

The Swiss Engineered Quad Calibrated Turntable.

Does it include a live-in service tech to keep it tweaked ?  If not it should.

 Oh My God!!! Is that thing REAL or  just a hoax.

I've never really understood the multiple tonearms thing.  OK, so maybe one for a mono cart.  But otherwise, I'd take one really good tonearm and one really good cart.

Pretty funny.  We got the catalog last week and I was intrigued by the cover photo of the turntable.  I gave up after thumbing through many pages of useless, expensive dreck and still not finding out what the turntable was.  I must say that it's eye-catching!

I think it's a set up to compare different make and model of cartridges
without having to take it out and re-install a new one
and having to do the proper set up each time, it's time consuming.
With several cartridges you can instantly switch from one to the other for evaluation.

I have a few problems with it (in addition to the price ).  It forms a fairly big system and I have a horrible image of myself knocking one of the near arms flying across a record as I'm leaning over trying to reach a far arm, particularly with a wine or two under my belt  Also, whilst I respect that tone arms (and cartridges of course) do have different sound qualities, the need for so many as four at the 'top end of quality' that this system represents, rather escapes me.  Then again, what do I know?  There are probably people out there with 6 arm systems or even half a dozen different CD players or DACS in their rack to play each genre in an optimal way    It is rather impressive though

The table is from DaVinciAudio. It is the AAS Gabriel Reference MkII. It runs right at $50k. As usual, HS nearly doubles the retail since it graces their pages.

As for the multiple arm tables, I'm in the process of building one myself. I'll have a mono cart on one arm, a cheap MM (Denon) on another that I use as a daily spinner to keep hours off my 'good carts', then on the final arm (or two) I'll mount my good MCs. That way when I want to pull all the goodness out of my vinyl, I just flip a switch and use a killer arm/cart combo. For the 'passive' listening, my Denon or Music Maker does just fine.
