Pete's Pylons Reference Suspension for Michell turntables
Pete’s Suspension Upgrade' can best be described as a Lattice Truss Suspension System (LTSS) and is now available as an upgrade for J A Michell Orbe and Gyro turntables. A truss is a structure that takes advantage of the inherent stability and weight distribution of a triangle. In the LTSS, o-rings are employed to create this configuration, giving the system substantially more lateral as well as vertical stability, while allowing for perfect balance alignment.
Ever since the first truss structures were employed in Ancient Egypt and across the entire Roman Empire, this structure has become integral to modern architecture. We have copied this well proven structure design and used it to improve the performance of the J A Michell turntable.
This Reference version is the next generation of Pete's Pylons.
We are now manufacture the Suspension Pylons with eight segments. This gives a 30% improvement in dynamic spring loading over the six segment type.
The six segment type is a truly excellent form of suspension, but by making the suspension with eight segments we have taken the performance to a much higher lever.
Pete has been testing the Reference Set with other Gyrodec/Orbe enthusiasts for the last two years and they all amazed at the performance of these suspension units.
