A $50,000 turntable. It’s the Montegiro Lusso Turntable.
To be fair, it’s pretty cool looking, but I’m sure it’s absolutely impractical.
It’s supposed to have an ultra-precise motor and the cartridge is made out of titanium. Still, I really don’t know if it’s worth it. I may stick with my low-end tables.
In my googling, I did find some pretty interesting thing. Kanye West’s blog did a post on this same topic, and appears to have the exact same wording as the original post I saw on AudioJunkies.
Not that it’s that big a deal or anything, but I figure you can at least change the words around a little! Bad on Kanye.
Looking directly at the Montegiro site, I actually think I’m more a fan of the Vivo turntable. Here’s what it looks like:
I bet it’s cheaper too.
