Product Description

The Music Hall MMF-5SE turntable is a 2-speed belt driven audiophile turntable employing the unique dual-plinth construction originated by Music Hall. The distinctive design isolates the critical sound reproducing components; platter, main bearing, tone arm, and cartridge on the top platform from the motor, switch, wiring, and feet which are mounted on the bottom platform. Sorbothane hemispheres separate the two platforms and provide vibration damping. The MMF-5SE comes complete with a Goldring G1022 moving magnet cartridge mounted.

This review is from: Music Hall MMF-5SE Turntable (Electronics)

This sounds great, though I don't have much of a benchmark other than my 2001 version of the Pro-Ject 1.2. Incrementally better than that deck. Running it through a Lehman Black Cube from 2001, you get some nice frequency and instrument separation. My question: I always wondered if the fifties and sixties classical, jazz and rock producers contemplated a world where every bit of sound would be squeezed out of their master tapes. And is that squeezing necessarily an appropriate thing, given the producers didn't contemplate such a sound when mixing and mastering?

Oh well, back to the real world. I love slapping the vinyl on this thing and passing the evenings with a beer and sweet tunes.
