Turntables — Michell Orbe SE

When developing Michell Orbe SE, the goal was to achieve the sound quality of the company’s senior turntable, Michell Orbe, but in a smaller package (150x490x375 mm). This is how the Spider Edition solution appeared – devoid of a large base and a dust cover (you have to buy it separately). Michell Orbe SE uses a system with two layers of isolation and a 60mm thick vibration damping Polymer platter. The drive system is belt, supports speeds of 33 1/3, 45 revolutions, high performance DC motor with dedicated “Never-Connected circut” power supply is used. The turntable weighs 13.5 kg. The turntable looks increbidly.

The main secret of Michell Orbe SE is a double suspension system. As is known, vinyl players are extremely sensitive to resonances - therefore, the system can be improved both by increasing its weight (the so-called high mass turntables), and by using decoupling modules of the turntable with the shelf. In our case, a combination is used - a double damped chassis with suspended pendulum sub-chassis (solid aluminum feet and three suspension towers are fixed to the secondary acrylic base) and 60 mm thick massive acrylic/vinyl platter with a high moment of inertia.
