Michell Design Philosophy

The task of a turntable is simple.

The design of a turntable is not!

At audio frequencies, the arm should be kept locked above the groove, without any extraneous motion relative to the cartridge. And the groove should be dragged at a constant angular speed underneath the stylus.

This means that over the whole frequency band of 10Hz up to 20kHz and beyond, the whole loop made by record, platter, bearing, (sub)chassis, arm plate, tonearm, and cartridge body should behave in an utterly rigid and non-resonant fashion.

Any flexing of the same dimensions as the microscopic undulations in the groove detracts from sonic fidelity.

At lower-than-audio frequencies, the arm should be made able to freely follow the groove’s warps and excentricities, so as not to damage LP or cartridge, and this without inducing any spurious signals into the cartridge’s generator.

Only when these demands are fulfilled can the stylus trace the actual information embedded in the record’s groove walls.

A simple task, you said? A simple task it is not!

 

 

Description

Michell Audio HR Power Supply

The HR Power Supply is a low-noise electronic power source for the DC motors as found on the TecnoDec, GyroDec and Gyro SE turntables.
 
Adding extra stability to the power supply for the motor, the HR features the novel Never-Connected circuit, and has a user-adjustable speed control on its back plate.
 
Fitting is simple – just unplug the motor lead from the existing supply and connect it to the HR. An IEC mains lead comes supplied.
 
Please note that the HR Power Supply is now only available in a black acrylic case.
