About this product
The Michell Gyrodec Performance Pack is a specific performance set, designed to compliment the aesthetic of the beautiful Michell Gyrodec/SE and Orbe turntables. It offers a significant sound upgrade and additional damping for the adjustable spring mechanism in the standard unit. You get another sprung layer which isolates the whole turntable from it’s platform and from the motor. The motor also gets another set of vibration deducing silicon feet and added weight from it’s spacer disc.
The Gyrodec has springs to suspend the turntable and allow for levelling adjustment. The springs can be quite microphonic, so the damping afforded by the magnetic suspension really helps to reduce this noise. It also lets the turntable settle quickly to stillness, where the undamped springs let the setup bounce around for several seconds, when you release the downward pressure from the record clamp.
It comprises three modified brass and stainless steel Ukishima 6 feet and a turned billet aluminium motor spacer to compensate for the feet being 22mm taller than the standard cones.
Solidair know the Gyrodec very well and love the way it looks, so it was important to compliment the unique aesthetic of this iconic turntable and we think they have achieved this. The materials and shapes really look the part and could have come with the dec as standard equipment. In tests the feet made considerably more sound improvement than spending an extra £500 on the stylus. The magnetic field is also well contained and does extend anywhere near the sensitive signal path, so we are confident you would not be disappointed with this product on any level.”
If you have a lid on your Gryodec or Orbe you may need a heavy foot at the rear to allow the turntable to be played with the lid open, as it loads the back foot quite heavily. See the “Michell Grodec performance pack plus” if you need this option.
Solidair Audio have a video to show how to install the performance packs, in can be viewed here .
For a serious performance upgrade, combine this set with the Solidair Pylons.
