Solid
Machine |

The
Solid Machine, offers excellent playback properties from its double plinth
support. Featuring the standard outboard 24v AC motor with speed control,
and the SKV bearing specification found on its more expensive siblings.
This is a real statement from Karl Wirth at its price point.
Reviewed extensively in Europe to praise you would expect from an offering at HIAudio, The Solid Machine oozes quality and engineering excellence.
Suitable for up to three tonearm's.
"Karl Wirth is particularly proud of the platter bearing. He
makes use of the so called SKC non-frictional coatings, which are characterised
above all by their precision, resistance to wear and running properties.
The result is that there are no unpleasant jerks in the operating elements
when the turntable starts up. It also avoids.
"the onset of after-running, caused by tension release. The use of
the right kind of lubrication - high quality oils are a must - reduces
the wear of the non-frictional coating to a minimum. SKC non-frictional
coatings are not damaged by unfavourable operating conditions such as
faulty lubrication and can therefore not seize up.
"Moreover, tolerance levels, which Karl Wirth puts at three thousandths
of a millimetre should ensure that no play is apparent anywhere in the
whole bearing." Marco Kolks, HÖRERLEBNIS
