The Avenger tables began as a project initiated by Harry over 12 years ago but were put on hold mid-production due to overwhelming demand from HR-X customers, leaving the design and prototype chassis unused. Each Avenger table features a unique chassis composed of three layers of bonded acrylic and aluminum with damping material, along with stainless steel corner posts for isolation and tonearm mounting. Powered by a high-torque, quiet 300 RPM AC synchronous motor, the Avenger ensures precision with its 20-pound aluminum platter and advanced inverted bearing design, delivering exceptional performance for audiophiles.

The Avenger tables were originally a project started by Harry over 12 years ago. In the process of the design the project was dropped in mid-production due to excessive demand for the HR-X customers which left the design and proto-type chassis to be mothballed.

Tonearm included. Cartridges are sold separately.

Features

• The Avenger chassis is three layers of bonded acrylic/aluminum/acrylic with damping material between layers.
• 3 stainless steel corner posts for both isolation and tonearm mounting and for mechanical grounding (up to 3 will fit).
