Michell GyroDec Turntable
A Modern Classic
The Michell GyroDec is a full-sized suspended turntable that blends timeless design with modern precision engineering. Originally launched in the early 1980s and refined over decades, the GyroDec remains one of the most iconic turntables in high-end audio, known for its distinctive appearance and outstanding performance.
Engineering and Design
At the heart of the GyroDec is a precision-machined acrylic plinth and a three-point spring suspension system that isolates the main chassis from vibrations. The turntable features a free-standing AC motor, inverted oil-circulating main bearing, and a high-mass acrylic platter with brass weights to ensure rotational stability and reduce resonance. The entire system is engineered to provide exceptional speed consistency and a black background for music reproduction.
Performance
With its neutral tonal balance and impressive soundstage, the GyroDec delivers a highly detailed and engaging musical experience. Its suspended sub-chassis design minimizes external interference, allowing your music to come through with clarity, depth, and emotional impact. The GyroDec is ideal for discerning listeners seeking an analog system that combines sonic excellence with timeless aesthetic appeal.
