Pheonix Engineering Road Runner


This product was very popular when produced by Phoenix Engineering before they went out of business and seems to be even more popular after. My question is why hasn't some other manufacturer made something similar? The demand seems to be there.

We have designed a Tachometer that displays RPM to 3 decimal points like the RR and will offer it for sale soon - it will however not communicate with a power source to correct speed issues.  it’s accuracy is 5ppm better than the RR.

I thought the RR had an accuracy of 2.5ppm;  how can it be better by 5ppm?
@pbnaudio , how would your product physically adapt to a VPI table, say a Prime w/SMFA.
The exact same way, a small magnet is placed on the platter which in turn is read by a magnetic switch placed on the plinth.  We plan to sell  these at $299.

Yes its only a speed indicator, it does not control any associated motor drive functions.  I have used quite a few of the Roadrunners in my DD tables, so when Bill closed shop I needed to find a replacement, none were available so we had to design our own.  Its slightly larger than the Roadrunner the Aluminum case is 6.25 deep, 3.875 wide and 1.625 tall
