High End Turntable

[Tony3d]

Please fire away. The arm is A Graham Phantom, the turnable is conceptual.

Nice! But I think it lacks some surfaces, primarily brushed aluminum.

Does anyone know where to get a texture package of clean metals? I have the Arroway set and the Gnomon Workshop set, but I can't find any clean metal packs.

Nice. Not often you get the viewpoint of the bottom pic.
Maybe a little bump on the tonearm assembly textures.

Or the second or third for that matter

Thanks. If you click once on the image it will blow up a little larger, and you will see a bump on the arm bearings. The chrome is a smooth mirror finish on this arm.

I was looking at the larger version. I looked at my turntable(real one) and the arm bearings are smooth like yours. So, I stand corrected.:thumbsup: Good job modeling all the details in the arm bearing. I am working on a model of my Systemdek IIX turntable. Everything is done except the arm bearings and stylus.

I'd like to see that image. Are you an audiophile?

I'll see if I can get get a quick render together.
Audiophile? YES. Love that vinyl. Back in the 90's I got rid of most of my equipment and really never replaced it. I cleaned and updated my turntable, got a tube preamp, and running it through my 5.1 system for now. In stereo, of course:) I have around 1500 lps and 90% are in mint condition.

My newest additions are AKG K701 headphones, and a WooAudio WA6 tube headphone amp. Pure audio bliss!

That warm happy glow. Spin Sgt. Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band for me:thumbsup:

Well while I'm at it thought I'd post my Cary amp rendering.

Here's what I have so far.

I think the surface shaders need a lot of work, but the model looks good.

Do we all model out turntables?? Seems we may all do!

Cheers!
