Following the enormous popularity of the Odyssey limited edition turntable in 2004, we are delighted to introduce the new Gyro ‘SE’duction, a limited edition, numbered series of 99. The ‘SE’duction is a Gyro SE given a blue steel finish to all anodized parts including the signature weights suspended below the platter. The turntable is supplied with a matching engraved record clamp, a black TecnoArm (a proven perfect partner for the Gyro) and an HR High Resolution Power Supply with Never Connected technology, ensuring the ‘SE’duction gives the absolute best from this classic design. With its striking appearance, attention to detail and outstanding sound quality, it will only be a short period of time before we expect all these units to be sold.. Please reserve early. When they are gone, they're gone! We expect our alloted consignment to ship from Michell in early March 2011.

Dimensions: 19" W x 15" D x 5.5" H

Includes the TecnoArm tonearm, clamp and H.R. High Reolution Power supply.

TecnoDec - with Special Version REGA RB250 Tonearm
TecnoDec - without arm with choice of Rega or SME armboard

In the May 2006 issue of STEREOPHILE Michael Fremer gave the TecnoDec a wonderful review.

Conclusion: "Although the field is crowded with $1700 turntables worth considering, the Michell TecnoDec is easy to recommend."

$1,695.00

The TecnoDec is Michell's entry level turntable but has the sound quality one would expect from a Michell product, yet at a price 1/3 less than the Gyro SE. The TecnoDec shares a similar vinyl-damped acrylic platter, inverted main bearing and DC motor to that of the Gyro, but dispenses with a sprung subchassis. Isolation feet and a stand-alone motor housing ensure minimal noise pickup. The TecnoDec is so simple to set up, with no complicated adjustments. Comes complete with an outboard DC power supply with internal speed adjustment capability.

The supplied Special Version Rega RB250 includes a TecnoWeight, VTA adjuster and knurled finger nut for quick VTA adjustments, and is sonically superior to the standard RB250, or RB300. This deck is upgradeable with the H.R. High Resolution Power Supply with Never Connected technology.

Dimensions: 19" W x 12" D x 3" H

Gyro SE - w/o arm

$2,495.00

The most popular Michell table ever, the Gyro SE has a silent European-made DC motor and matching DC power supply with internal speed adjustment. Supplied with black acrylic platter and reflex clamp, with Silver chassis, motor housing, armboard and spring caps. (specify arm board) The Gyro SE is a Stereophile Class B Recommended Component. As your budget or needs change it is fully upgradeable with the HR Power Supply with Never Connected technology, Orbe Clamp, Orbe Platter and DensoDamp.

Dimensions: 19" W x 15" D x 5.5" H

Tonearm not included

The Orbe SE is powered by a European-made DC motor that provides a tachometer feedback signal for the new NC Tacho power supply. Using this signal, the power supply adjusts its output to keep the motor turning at a constant speed. By ensuring the load is never connected directly to the incoming AC mains supply, the new Never-Connected power supply circuit totally breaks the conduction path from mains pollution, preventing unwanted contamination by noise and interference. The sound improvement is stunning.

The Michell TecnoArm is constructed with a derivative of the Rega RB250 arm tube and bearing housing. A proprietary process is then applied to the arm tube to toughen the bearing housing and headshell areas. The arm tube mass is lowered at the headshell end, with 22 precision drilled on the underside. This increases trackability and reduces unwanted resonances. The underside of the headshell is then aligned to the main bearings and precision milled in a jig, ensuring zero azimuth for the cartridge. The arm is internally damped and rewired with one continuous length of 99.999% pure silver Litz wire between Michell's own silver-plated machined cartridge clips and Michell's own silver-plated billet brass RCA plugs. The underslung TecnoWeight counterweight is supplied with two weights: the lighter one for cartridges between 3 and 6 grams, the heavy one for cartridges between 6 and 13 grams. An optional extra heavy weight is available for cartridges weighing more than 13 grams. The TecnoWeight has a precision vernier adjustment for setting tracking weight in 1/10th gram increments without need for a stylus scale. Michell's popular VTA adjuster and Finger Nut are included as well, making VTA adjustments possible in seconds. The arm is supplied with 3 shorter arm board standoffs to give a wider range of VTA adjustment if used on a GyroDec, or Orbe turntable. Mounting template, alignment protractor and instructions are included.

Artech Electronics has been supplying an exclusive special version of the Rega RB250 on the Michell TecnoDec for some time. This RB250 Special Version provides far better performance than an RB300, even if equipped with the same upgrades. This tonearm sounds so good that dealers and consumers have been asking us to supply it on its own. We have therefore made arrangements for Michell Engineering to put this arm together for us in standard Rega style retail packaging (Molded foam clamshell with outside carton).

The arm consists of a Michell-branded RB250 onto which the Michell Tecnoweight, VTA Adjuster and Finger Nut have been installed. The underslung TecnoWeight counterweight is supplied with two weights: the lighter one for cartridges between 3 and 6 grams, the heavy one for cartridges between 6 and 13 grams. An optional extra heavy weight is available for cartridges weighing more than 13 grams. The TecnoWeight has a precision vernier adjustment for setting tracking weight in 1/10th gram increments without need for a stylus scale. Michell's popular VTA Adjuster and Finger Nut are included as well, making VTA adjustments possible in seconds. The arm is supplied with 3 shorter arm board standoffs to give a wider range of VTA adjustment if used on a GyroDec, or Orbe turntable.
