Now you're talking. It sounds like you are describing the Platine Verdier, Which uses a magnetically suspended platter that is driven by a thin thread like belt. The platter is massive and must be push started after which the belt takes over. BTW, 20k tables while nice to see are not practical, 2k is more reasonable. The magnetic coupling of the DD motor, does that not impact the stylus through field effects? As implemented in all DD's I am aware of the ultra-light platters must ring like hell no? Thanks for giving this subject the respect it deserves. J.R.
