Sksos, Quartz clock or no quartz clock, the Timeline is naught but a set of strobe lights that blink at a constant frequency. As such, the enhanced accuracy has most to do with the very long distance from the spindle to the wall upon which one reads the flashes, relative to that afforded by conventional strobe/disc methods, not the electronics of it. Nevertheless, I have tested all 4 of my vintage DD turntables with the Timeline (which I borrowed from a friend), and they tend to be bang on accurate. Which is why I wondered about the Bardo. The Bardo, so far as I know, has a coreless motor governed by a Hall sensor, very much like other coreless motor-driven DD turntables going back to the original Dual built in the 60s, which includes my Victor TT101 and my Kenwood L07D. With its modern implementation of a well established design, the Bardo should easily pass the Timeline test.
Bardo and 10.5 vs Stabi S and 4point 9
What would you choose of these two combinations? Has anyone had experience listening to each? I’ve only found one post noting a comparison, with the poster preferring the Kuzma.
I have been wanting the Bardo + 10.5 but the price keeps it out of range, at the very least for another month or two, possibly more. At nearly half the price I could pick up the Kuzma now. Wonder which of these two powerhouses people would go with.
