The Avenger tables were initially a project launched by Harry over 12 years ago but were halted mid-production due to the overwhelming demand from HR-X customers, leaving the design and prototype chassis unused. Each table features a robust chassis made from three layers of bonded acrylic and aluminum, along with stainless steel corner posts for enhanced isolation and tonearm mounting. Additionally, the Avenger incorporates an Analog Drive System for precise motor speed, a 25-pound aluminum magnetic drive platter, and premium isolation feet designed for superior noise cancellation and stability.
