Other Notes: “After almost thirty years, the Sapphire, SOTA’s first product, is not only current but has been improved in all areas while retaining the designer David Fletcher’s revolutionary inverted sapphire bearing and four point handing suspension that still ensures isolation from environmental disturbances second to none and equaled by almost none …the Sapphire remains for me the least expensive go-to turntable for the absolute sound.” – Paul Seydor, TAS Golden Ear Winner
