Jan 2004 - Hi Fi World

Goldring GR2
GR2 TURNTABLE
New GR2 Turntable
The GR2 delivers a substantial sonic improvement over the GR1.2.
First and foremost, the tonearm comes fitted with the ultra high quality Goldring 1012GX moving magnet cartridge which features the acclaimed Gyger II profile stylus. This is a fine line type which produces exceptionally detailed and smooth treble, coupled with extremely low distortion.
The GR2 also boasts a large (18mm) main bearing, which aids sound quality by reducing rumble, whilst the low resonance Kronospan platter contains a heavy metal insert which encircles the platter close to the outer rim. This increases both the platters mass and fly-wheel effect, which in turn, improves speed accuracy and gives a more dynamic sound.

Cartridge: Ultra high performance moving magnet type (Goldring 1012GX)
Belt-drive, two speed
18mm Main bearing
Motor: 12-pole synchronous type

Roksan Radius 5 turntable + Nima arm
The design of the Radius5 record player has many special features not found in other similar turntables. Drive mechanism utilises a custom synchronous motor fitted with a precision-machined solid aluminium alloy pulley.
The main bearing housing and spindle are custom designed and machined from solid brass and solid stainless steel to extremely high precision to ensure ultra smooth running and longevity. The platter is machined from solid Acrylic to very high accuracy and ensures speed stability.
Main bearing, Platter and Tone Arm are mounted on the sub-plinth and three point de-coupled from the main-plinth to maximise performance and minimise acoustic break through. The motor assembly is mounted on the motor block and then onto the main-plinth and further de-coupled to avoid motor noise break through. Tone Arm cable is rigidly fixed to the main-plinth that acts as a mechanical ground and minimises interference with the sub-plinth.
The Radius5 has three custom made adjustable spike feet to allow levelling and provide optimum coupling to the surface that it sits on. Partnered with the NIMA tone arm, the Radius5 has unparalleled performance in its class.
