The Michell Gyro SE is a refined, compact iteration of the iconic Gyrodec turntable, designed to deliver near-identical performance in a smaller footprint. It combines cutting-edge engineering, premium materials, and precision design to provide a truly neutral and reference-quality audio experience.
Unlike the full acrylic plinth found on the Gyrodec, the Gyro SE features an acrylic spyder. This rigid and inert base supports the chassis while reducing size and maintaining excellent vibration isolation. It’s the perfect choice for audiophiles seeking high performance without occupying excessive space.
The three-point spring suspension system is a hallmark of the Gyro SE. Three suspension towers fixed to the acrylic base secure the springs, allowing precise height adjustment for the sub-chassis. This design ensures exceptional stability and isolation, shielding the turntable from external vibrations and disturbances.
The platter of the Gyro SE is meticulously crafted from a material chosen for its vibration-damping properties and acoustic neutrality, closely mimicking the sonic characteristics of vinyl. Added brass weights enhance the platter's mass and momentum, leading to improved speed stability and reduced wow and flutter.
A free-standing motor unit powers the turntable, remaining completely detached from the main structure. This isolation prevents any motor-induced noise or vibration from reaching the sensitive playback components, ensuring a pure and undisturbed audio signal.
Suspended on the three-point spring system, the weighted pendulum sub-chassis forms a robust platform for the main bearing, platter, and tonearm. This configuration minimizes unwanted movement and acts as a resonance sink, effectively dissipating vibrations away from the critical playback components.
The inverted main bearing is a standout feature of the Gyro SE. The point of rotation is positioned at the top, enabling complete lubrication during platter rotation. Utilizing a modified Archimedean screw within the bearing, oil is drawn from a reservoir at the base to the thrust ball at the top and recirculated. This design minimizes noise and ensures long-term durability and precision.
The solid aluminum feet are engineered to minimize contact with the supporting surface, reducing the transfer of external vibrations to the turntable. This ensures the Gyro SE performs flawlessly, even on less-than-ideal surfaces.
