A Reference Turntable for Serious Vinyl Listening

If you’re spinning vinyl on a serious basis, you want more than just a turntable. You want equipment that allows you to hear the music while minimizing vibration and mechanics noise. Achieving both goals is the focus of the Michell GyroDec Reference Turntable, which features a suspended sub-chassis, separate motor, and specialized platter.

The GyroDec has become something of a staple release since Michell first launched it years ago. This high-performance turntable combines unique styling with purposeful detailing to create a refined vinyl playback experience. Thanks to its high-density acrylic base, the GyroDec offers audiophiles a reliable foundation. Supporting this solid platform is its pendulum-style sub-chassis, which cradles the main bearing, platter, and tonearm for precise vinyl playback.

Thoughtful Design Means Improved Sound Quality

Designed to isolate the turntable from unwanted vibrations, GyroDec uses a three-point spring suspension. The inverted main bearing features oil circulation for quiet, consistent performance. These key components work together to stabilize platter movement, so it spins steadily and keeps your records sounding more focused.

Loaded with solid brass weights, the acrylic/vinyl composite platter promotes even better vibration control and speed consistency. The turntable’s separate AC Pabst motor also distances drive mechanics from the delicate playback assembly. And you’ll have choice of using one or both of its custom-designed belts, ensuring you can optimize setup however you prefer.

Build a Turntable That Meets Your Needs

Michell doesn’t include a tonearm with the Michell GyroDec Reference Turntable, giving you the freedom to select your own compatible option. There are also several cartridges that’ll bring your music to life. From there, you can complement the turntable with upgrades like the Orbe Clamp, HR-PSU, and Denso Damp. In other words, build the turntable to work with your existing system, then upgrade it as you go.

Weighing in at 14kg and measuring just 53cm wide, the GyroDec Reference Turntable is compact enough for most dedicated areas. Choose between Black or Silver to better match your décor, and keep your equipment clean with the aid of its hinged clear acrylic lid. Not sure where to start?
