What HFL Thinks
Michell Engineering Orbe SE Turntable – We are firm believers that vinyl is still the best way to listen to your music, this is why we are so excited to offer Michell Turntables to our customers, there is nothing quite like the Gyro Dec and Orbe turntables, real classic designs in British HiFi, but more importantly Michell Turntables are engineered to perfection to give you accurate replay of your treasured vinyl. The original Gyro Dec’s are now over 30 years old and still being serviced by Michell, meaning you can buy a Michell Turntable safe in the knowledge it will give you years of trouble free use so you can sit back and marvel at the looks and sound of your Michell Turntable.
By eliminating much of the expensive acrylic, the Michell Orbe SE offers most of the Orbe’s qualities in a cheaper, smaller, and to some people aesthetically more pleasing package. An Orbe SE can always be upgraded to a full Orbe by purchasing the double plinth and dustcover. When teamed with an RB250 or RB300 tonearm, the Orbe SE is a surprisingly affordable entry to the Orbe-class of performance.
