The Gyro is a belt-drive turntable from Michell Engineering, a British manufacturer with a considerable heritage in precision turntable engineering, built with a genuine floating suspension system. The Gyro brings Michell's considered engineering to a well-regarded analogue playback format.

Key specs that matter

Two speeds are supported - 33 and 45rpm - via belt drive, providing genuine isolation between motor and platter. The floating suspension design specifically isolates the platter and tonearm assembly from external vibration and footfall, a more sophisticated approach than a fixed-chassis design.

Sound and use context

Expect exceptional isolation and stability reflecting the floating suspension design, combined with the belt-drive mechanism's inherent motor isolation, consistent with Michell Engineering's long-standing reputation for precision analogue playback.

Pairing

Buyers should confirm tonearm and cartridge compatibility directly with Michell Engineering or an authorised dealer to complete this turntable's analogue front end.

Alternatives

Michell Engineering's broader turntable catalogue offers alternatives at different scales for buyers wanting either a more compact or more elaborate expression of the brand's precision engineering philosophy.
