Setup is all important with the Gyro - been there, done that.
Ya just gotta get the beastie bouncin' right.
Sounds boring and flat if you just plunk it down and play, I mean really zzzzzzzz - but sounds mighty fine when is all good. It's worth spending the time faffing around with those support springs!
Lovely tt, Gaz.

Still not 100% sure if the bounce could be better but spent a bit of time on getting it as good as I could.

The Michell suspension can never be got totally right it seems and this is one area where they could do some work methinks. The Orbe bits do turn it into a different and better animal though.

doesnt the suspension have the same problem as a linn and indeed most sprung suspensions - 3 springs in compression , being acted upon by a belt pulling in another direction ?

Wish Michell sold the Orbe motor unit with the tacho separately though..
that said, haven't phoned them up and asked them yet!

The Gyro springs are in tension Dan, unlike the Linn.
Better design imo.
