With great plessure and a deserved sense of appreciation I opened today the Stereophile and learned Continuum turntable was pushed by Michael Fremer to the “Product of the year”. I would leave aside even theoretical bogusness of the “Product of the Y...

Romy, I get your point that it seems like the best and most likely application of your evaluation ideas would be exactly the “high-end” designers and manufacturers we are met to disparage. And this should be particularly true in the case of the...

The subject of this head is not the Continuum Turntable but rather the little frighten Moron with sentimental name Michael Fremer. It is important to note that Michael Fremer is not just a Moron own problems but the persons who is with his proactive ...

This there is not about the Continuum TT but about the idiocy of Mike Framer, that was so nicely illustrated. Still if someone interested about the Continuum direction then here is David Robinson’s article and his observations.

I do not know now many times 40 rpm it was. It was slower then necessary and I do not know, or care for how much. Also, nope, they did not blame anything and in fact after they measured the speed and confirmed that it was off they were very apologeti...

Well, Paul, a majority of audio Morons is that in their infinite chase for a “better” turntables approach the subject of turntables’ assessment using fundamentally faulty techniques. Let pretend, juts for sake of illustration, that a pric...

I'd read a fascinating (and widely recommended) article about the importance of absolute speed stability in turntables. http://www.iar-80.com/page12.html

That becomes almost fan. As I was informed by Michael Fremer:
“It [Continuum] is beautifully built, designed based on science and high technology and has proven to be ultra-reliable during the time I've had it here. In fact, I bought mine at conside...

Interestingly that I eventually decided to read the Mike Fremer review about the Continuum turntable. I was trying quite hard but I was not able to read it. The content was none-readable and revolting as in a beginning of each sentence the Framer jus...

[quote user="Gregm"]I would agree. I'd feel that the objective of "audio journalism" (for wont of a better description) is entertainment -- not an "evaluation" that can be used for reference purposes.So, the components discussed/presented are simply ...

I always feel that whatever I say isn’t personal enough.
[quote user="markus46"] This is in no way a criticism, but English is obviously not your first language. Your posts are littered with spelling, punctuation and grammatical errors which m...

Chaslieb, you generally is not wrong BUT all of those very rational
theories have in my view any practical meaning only in context of TTs with conventional
platters, means the platters of sane mass. As soon we enter of domain the platters

I do not want to dive seriously into discussion about Continuum turntable. I have not reasons or interest, not to mention that this thread is not about the Continuum turntable but rather about the primitivism and idiocy of the “gantseh makher” Fremer...

I just ran across this quote from Mr. Fremer, circa 1999, and I doubt much has changed on this front:"Sitting in my listening room auditioning this $3995 Premier 15 phono section from Conrad-Johnson—a process that I made sure went on for months!...
