Looks very well finished and with a proper right angle armboard cut out to boot.
And the price is much nicer than you would imagine.

That is really interesting and obviously calls out for a comparison with Tangerine Audio’s Stiletto.
Also the Tiger Paw product is a couple of £K cheaper.
It also looks quite good.
I was tempted by the Stiletto but will definitely check this out.

Would much rather trust it from an engineering manufacturer as Roger is.
IMHO.

The photo implies it comes with a base included. Makes it even better value.
Seriously tempted, but Keel and Urika first

James,
You could be right as regards the base and therefore the price comparison.
Obviously cries out for a comparative dem with The Stiletto.

Dan, you on form today!
As regards the plinth the web site says the base and upper part join just below the fourth flute such that any joint is invisible.... clever... but does this mean it only comes in a fluted variant I wonder?

When the Stilletto came out it was smooth and everyone said they would prefer a fluted plinth now that style is available at a super much more realistic price people are asking about a smooth one.
