John Michell è stato nominato 
da una giuria come il miglior progettista dello scorso secolo. Il suo più famoso 
giradischi è stato il Transcriptor, immortalato nel film "Arancia Meccanica" di 
Stanley Kubrik, e presente nel museo d'arte moderna di New York. Sempre Michell, 
realizzò i modellini delle navicelle spaziali in "2001 Odissea nello spazio". 
 We 
have been building quality audio turntables for over 35 years now, which makes 
us one of the oldest manufacturers still in business. The GyroDec turntable has 
been around for over 25 years, and even its first incarnation can still be 
upgraded to the latest status. Michell turntables are precision instruments, 
built to last, and to reproduce sound as close as possible to the mastertape.

Il TecnoArm 2 è il successore del celebre braccio 
TecnoArm. Utilizza un braccio
monoblocco che ha subito un processo di sabbiatura per conferire maggior
rigidezza e dispone di 22 fori praticati nella parte inferiore per ridurne la 
massa. La
parte inferiore del portatestina è stata lavorata per essere perfettamente 
parallela
alla posizione del cuscinetto. Il braccio viene quindi assemblato utilizzando i 
nuovi
cuscinetti a polimeri a frizione ultra bassae montato sulla nuova base Ncompletamente riprogettata. 
 
 The TecnoArm(a) is 
a fundamental mechanical rebuild of the well-known RB250 tonearm, to which is 
added monolithic wiring of the highest quality. The arm tube is bead-blasted and 
perforated, which disperses structural resonances and yields a lower effective 
mass. The arm wand is internally damped to reduce resonance further, and the 
headshell is machined flat, to allow true azimuth relative to the bearing 
craddle. After modification the bearings are re-adjusted for highest possible 
performance, according to original Rega procedures. One-piece perforated arm 
casting with internal foam damping Proprietary silver litz cable in a continuous

FAQ LA TECNOLOGIA 
 
 
 
  
 Making a turntable...The 
task of a turntable seems to be simple. 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 board, tone arm, and cartridge body should behave in an 
utterly rigid and non-resonant fashion. Any flexure 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? 
 
  
 
 LP records are 
warped. LP records vibrate along with the music as the stylus traces the groove. 
And LP records tend to move and bend under the pressure of the arm and cartridge 
when they are insufficiently supported. Michell turntables clamp the record to a 
hard platter. This flattens out warps, and it also couples the LP tightly to the 
platter so that internal resonances can be drained away from the stylus, as if 
the LP effectively is of a much higher thickness and rigidity. The Gyro SE and 
GyroDec models use a simple clamp to press down the LP record; the Orbe and Orbe 
SE benefit from a more advanced screw-down clamp and a washer that raises the LP 
at its center: under action of the clamp the record's playable area is then very 
tightly pressed down onto the flat platter, right to its edges. We make the 
platter from a proprietary self-damping compound of carbon/vinyl -loaded acrylic. 
This material closely approaches the mechanical and acoustical properties of the 
vinyl record itself, enhancing the coupling between both. Indeed, at boundaries 
of materials with like acoustic impedances, transmission of vibrational energy 
occurs. Whereas at boundaries of dissimilar materials, be they LP versus felt, 
metal, glass, or just air, only part of the energy is transmitted, the remainder 
being reflected back into the album, towards the stylus. Above measures not only 
result in a neutral and precise sound, but also in a very low susceptibility to 
record blemishes, ticks and pops. This is one of the reasons why a Michell 
Engineering turntable not only excels in the replay of good LPs, but also pulls 
the same trick with less than pristine records. Surely a benefit in this age of 
scarce fresh vinyl 
  
 
 The platter should 
be supported so that it can revolve smoothly, without any extraneous vibrations 
and motion. This is the job for the main bearing, the very heart of a turntable.
 
We employ a unique inverted bearing that locates the point of rotation above the 
center of gravity of the platter, and exactly at the height were the drive belt 
invokes. This makes the platter/bearing a self-stabilising component that can 
not be provoked into rocking modes. The precision bearing has a case-hardened 
steel shaft that is secured upright in an oil well, threaded into the subchassis 
from below. A massive bronze housing, precision-machined as a pair with the 
shaft, is attached to the platter via the integral record spindle. A thrust ball 
sits on the flat top of the shaft centralized by an inverted cone in the top of 
the housing. This housing has a spiral machined into its inner bore to draw a 
high quality synthetic oil from the bath to the top of the bearing shaft as the 
housing rotates with the platter. A hole is drilled from the top of the shaft 
down to the oil well to allow the trapped oil to return to the bottom. This 
unique oil pumping mechanism results in low friction and wear, and in low rumble 
and noise. Year after year of operation 
 
 
  
 
 The LP/cartridge/arm 
trio is to reside on its own 'island'. The suspension decouples them from the 
outside world with its motor noise, footfall, acoustic vibrations, and other 
potential disturbances. All of our turntables, except the TecnoDec, suspend the 
heavy subchassis and platter from three extension springs. This is an elegant 
and self-stabilising solution as the center of gravity of the floating mass is 
conveniently put below the suspension points. Rocking and nodding modes of the 
subchassis are hence discouraged, while overall turntable setup is 
straightforward, and drift is virtually inexistent. In addition, the total 
suspended mass of about eleven kilograms ensures that any incoupled energy can 
not result in large displacements. The spring towers double as the actual 
turntable supports, terminated in heavy aluminium cones. The towers are 
sectioned in two vertical parts, making a high-pressure point-contact with a 
bearing ball. This makes for a true three point support, which gives the springs 
and the suspended subchassis a firm reference to ground. The floating chassis' 
task is to keep the bearing and arm board rigidly in relation to each other. It 
is a heavy and rigid cast aluminium component, internally strengthened with 
beams and ribs. The Orbe and Orbe SE benefit from an additional layer of 
DensoDamp mastic which results in an acoustically inert subchassis with 
excellent self-damping properties. Offering a wide range of custom-made arm 
boards, we can keep the mass, and the mass-distribution, of the subchassis, 
platter, and arm a known constant. This translates into a suspended chassis 
turntable that works optimally with almost any existing tone arm. Off-the-shelf 
boards can be delivered for the following tone arms: Michell, Rega, SME (both 
types), Graham, Wilson-benesch, Morch, Origin-Live, and Linn. Others can be made 
to order. 
 
 
  
 
 The most obvious 
task of a turntable is to keep the record at a constant and precise angular 
speed, without low-rate drift, without audible wow, and without high-frequency 
noise components which detract from the music's delicacy. The 3.5 kg heavy 
platter, precision balanced, acts as a large flywheel. The Orbe's platter is 
made of three GyroDec platters bonded together to form one massive slab of 
acrylic. The GyroDec and Gyro SE employ a single-thickness acrylic platter, 
loaded with the gold-plated brass weights which over time have become Michell's 
signature. Once up to speed, and aided by the low-friction bearing, the platter 
only wants to maintain its motion, and not much extra input from the motor is 
needed. This motor is a very precise, reliable, and low-noise DC motor that has 
been selected only after extensive listening sessions and reliability tests. The 
Orbe models use a version of the same motor with a tacho speed control loop back 
to the supply. With all turntables the motor is a stand-alone unit, housed in a 
heavy base of metal (almost 3kg for the Orbe), to elimate vibrational 
breakthrough to the turntable. The HR and Orbe Controller NC supplies 
effectively isolate the motor from the potentially poluted mains network. Drive 
is relayed to the platter via a precision-ground soft round-section neoprene 
belt, which runs around the platter's circumference. This results in a very high 
reduction of noise transfer from the motor.
