The design incorporates a relatively compact footprint, though its weight is still quite substantial. The NVS is a computer-controlled direct-drive turntable, with a touch screen to control speeds (33.3 and 45 RPM) and start/stop, with a screw down clamp, and a thick multi-strata platter.

It's three adjustable pods support the mass of the unit, which in turn rests upon a remarkable Wave Kinetics isolation platform that is included with the turntable.

Due to the precision of the computer control module for the direct-drive motor, the turntable is extraordinarily linear in its speed control, and thus its pitch accuracy. Operation is completely silent.

The Durand Telos 12" tonearm is designed and executed by Joel Durand, it is a thing of beauty, a real work of art. Constructed of wood and custom machined brass and stainless steel and other cool stuff, the Telos takes to the NVS and synergizes as if they were born twins. And when you put the superb Ortofon A90 MC into the mix…well, the results are spectacular.
