The Omega Drive is a novel, proprietary, three-phase Synchronous motor that has been developed from the ground up by the Wilson Benesch GMT Consortium. The Omega Drive is a patent applied for design.<br>\u00b7 Stage One Step Up Transformer, with two separate transformers for each channel with Teflon dielectric silver Litz wiring and an amorphous core transformers. The transformers are shielded by Mu metal and have a dedicated ground.<br>\u00b7 The GMT System has been developed with a holistic approach whereby the turntable and all sub systems have been optimised to create a unified system developed by Wilson Benesch.<br>\u00b7 In addition to the Omega Drive, Wilson Benesch has developed the Alpha Isolation System, Piezo Remote VTA System, the Graviton Tonearm systems and the Tessellate cartridge Systems.<br>\u00b7 The Alpha Isolation System has been developed in collaboration with a leading optical measurement system isolation company. The Alpha Isolation System is a microprocessor controlled pneumatic system that isolates the GMT System from vibration. Fully autonomous, operating with micro-meter precision, providing isolation to 1.7Hz.<br>\u00b7 Both the GMT System Turntable and the Alpha Isolation System are fully compatible with the Wilson Benesch R1 System Rack. Together the system forms a highly optimised complete analogue replay system.<br>\u00b7 The Piezo Remote VTA System is the world\u2019s first remotely adjustable VTA System. Fully controllable from the listening position using the Wilson Benesch GMT System App, allowing unprecedented and repeatable accuracy of 1 nanometer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1281\" src=\"https:\/\/vumetre.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/DSC04677-edit.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1984\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vumetre.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/DSC04677-edit.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/vumetre.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/DSC04677-edit-1280x854.jpg 1280w, https:\/\/vumetre.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/DSC04677-edit-980x654.jpg 980w, https:\/\/vumetre.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/DSC04677-edit-480x320.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) and (max-width: 980px) 980px, (min-width: 981px) and (max-width: 1280px) 1280px, (min-width: 1281px) 1920px, 100vw\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Graviton Tonearms<br>\u00b7 Two new tonearms have been developed through collaboration with the Advanced Manufacturing Research Centre (AMRC) in Sheffield, England.

Complete with a tapered, helically wound single piece Carbon Fibre \/ Graphene \/ Rohacell armtube.<br>\u00b7 Both the Ti \u2013 Titanium and Al \u2013 Aluminium Armwands are comprised of additively manufactured counterbalance structures with highly optimised novel internal geometry that includes latticed as well as provides particle damping. The architecture is near ideal Geometry and features zero material redundancy in pursuit of maximum specific stiffness. These additively manufactured structures are formed by sintering titanium with multiple lasers to create a complex three-dimensional structure using state-of-the-art manufacturing technology. As such, when combined with the Piezo Remote VTA System, the Tesselate Ti and Al Armwands are the most advanced tonearms ever conceived and developed.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1281\" src=\"https:\/\/vumetre.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/GMT_turntable_wilson_benesch_711_3k.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1985\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vumetre.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/GMT_turntable_wilson_benesch_711_3k.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/vumetre.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/GMT_turntable_wilson_benesch_711_3k-1280x854.jpg 1280w, https:\/\/vumetre.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/GMT_turntable_wilson_benesch_711_3k-980x654.jpg 980w, https:\/\/vumetre.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/GMT_turntable_wilson_benesch_711_3k-480x320.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) and (max-width: 980px) 980px, (min-width: 981px) and (max-width: 1280px) 1280px, (min-width: 1281px) 1920px, 100vw\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><br>Tesselate Cartridges<br>\u00b7 The Tesselate Cartridge systems have been developed by Wilson Benesch.
