This
unit adds a few key features to the attributes of the Volvere and transports
the listener within breathing room of the Acutus. The Sequel employs an unmodified
motor used by the Acutus for significantly better control over the platter.
The macro/micro dynamics are noticeably improved, resulting in better definition
within the musical event. In audiophile circles, this is referred to as PRaT
(Pace, Rhythm and Timing), which in analog playback terms is the difference
between reproduced music and the actual event. The increased control of the
platter also translates into better control of the suspension movements. This
leads to a reduction in record surface and background noise, creating a blacker
background and allowing more music to flow through your system. The increase
in bandwidth allows amazing bass extension and a more natural high frequency
presentation. The Sequel is topped off with an external dedicated power supply
utilizing the state-of-the-art, split-phase quartz-locked technology used for
the Acutus. The Sequel is one of the most serious assaults on state of the art
analog playback. “Put a favourite LP on the platter, screw down the fine threaded clamp and let the needle into the groove and you'll hear things you never expected vinyl to deliver. Killer bass that goes all the way down and shakes the furniture, the most transparent of midranges that lets everything through, and the sweetest highs imaginable.” —The Editors of Hi-Fi Choice on the Sequel
