  Nottingham Analogue > Turntable
Nottingham Analogue latest entry level turntable "The Horizon".

Recently reviewed by Michael Fremer (Mr. Analog) in the February 2003 issue of Stereophile. It was up against five other tables from SOTA, Rega, and Pro-Ject. His conclusion?

"The Horizon delivered 'touch' and 'feel' that the others, as good as they were, only hinted at... Where most of the tables produced a slightly glazed sound compared to far more expensive models, the Horizon mimicked the sound of multi-thousand-dollar rigs..."

The philosophy of Nottingham Analogue

Rather than making more and more complex systems with exotic power supplies, hard to set-up and maintain suspension systems, the Nottingham Analogue Turntables really applies the "simple is good" principles.

The motor is so small that the drive is always left "on". To start the turntable, simply give the platter a "push". The motor is then only required to overcome the minimal frictional losses of the high quality bearing assembly. Speed is controlled absolutely by the inertia of the high mass platter but without the typical problems.

Nottingham Analogue Turntables also have no complex spring systems that quickly tire and need adjustment and endless "tuning". Your turntable need only a simple wooden table or a solid shelf to work at it’s tonal best.

A unique feature of the Nottingham Analogue Turntables is the relative ease with which 2 arms can be fitted. In some markets this is almost a pre-requisite. Thus, virtually any combination of arms can be mounted on the "Space" range.
