I spent some time on their site and found it to be interesting. They do some mods to the SL 1200 mk 2 that look promising. The two I noticed is
They build a new power supply mounted outboard thus eliminating emi effects as well as regulating the 34v DC with a better toroidal transformer and provide more filtration with bigger caps.
The second is they have a little circuit board that takes the strobelight out of the circuit after 15 seconds.
Another mod is they provide a little trough filled with silicon and a small paddle attached to the arm that rides in the silicon bath. Helping smooth modulation of the tonearm due to record warps etc.
I am not a DD guy but I sure would like to hear what this modified table sounds like. It ain't cheap but it is reasonable if the level of performance is increased over the already good stock unit.
