The Series 10 turntable is now available. The S10 is being supplied with the new S7.1 tonearm which permits quick changeover of arm beams (and thus cartridges) and sports a new mounting system which offers considerable improvements to transient response.
The S10 linear arm is still being refined. We will not release it for sale until we are 100% happy with it. When will that be? MaƱana!
An S10 with dual 12” S7 tonearms is now in use at the National Library of Canada, sound archive facility.
The S10 made its professional debut at the recent ARSC conference in San Francisco – coupled with Millennia’s LOC archival phono preamplifier – making live transfers of 78rpm shellac discs from Neil Young’s private collection.
The S10 made its public debut at the recent High End Show in Munich, Germany. We exhibited at the hi-fi deluxe show (not at the commercial cattlemarket which has become the main exhibition at MOC) alongside several other specialist manufacturers likewise seeking a return to the art of listening to music, not just ‘doing business’.
Simon Yorke turntables are offered from time to time via the Internet by unauthorised vendors. These may be copies of our designs or simply unlawful scams using our name to commit fraud. If you are considering buying a Simon Yorke turntable, whether offered as new or second hand, you would be wise to check beforehand with ourselves whether the unit in question is likely to be an authentic Simon Yorke, a fake copy or just a scam to get you to part with your money.
