The brilliant, gorgeous looking Basis 2200 Signature with Vector 4 tonearm replaces the Origin Live turntable and tonearm. The Clearaudio Syncro (on the second-shelf) is a reliable, trusty partner for all AC turntable motor - regardless of turntable price.
To give even further isolation to the turntable, the Black Diamond Racing Board “The Source” was deployed. Queen loves his music with a touch of tube-warmth and Koetsu cart was expertly mounted by us. Given the much higher price of this turntable system, the upgrade in sound is very noticeable - quietness, soundstage, ambient are Basis’ strengths.
“The Clearaudio Matrix record cleaning machine is a very good recommendation” - quoting the exact words from Queen to us.
The analog source has pulled so far away that Queen felt his CDs are now gathering dust. Want to guess which is Queen’s favourite rock band? (Answer: top row, second LP). If that was easy, can you spot the priciet LP in this lot? Answer: “The Fire Bird” (UK Decca) @ list price of 350 GBP. Now stick your tongue out like the guys of RHCP.
