Wave Kinetics NVS Reference Turntable

One of the small handful of finest turntables in the world. One owner and in mint cosmetic condition. The special base under the table shows wear. One of the two arm boards has been drilled for a Durand Talea arm (additional arm boards are available).  

In Fremer's Stereophile review, he concluded:  
 
"[T]he $45,000 Wave Kinetics NVS is a superbly designed and executed world-class turntable that comes tantalizingly close to matching the Continuum Caliburn’s sound. Its build quality is exceedingly high, its visual appeal undeniable. I also like that it’s made in the US. It produced a solid, precise, well-controlled sound that was not overdamped or too analytical, and that reliably sets the table for whatever colors you might want to add or subtract with your choice of associated gear. A top-shelf turntable that’s easy to recommend."

Will ship to continental U.S. only via air freight (too large and too heavy for UPS/FedEx - the turntable ships in a custom wooden shipping crate). Strong preference for local NYC metro area pickup.  

ASKING PRICE IS ABSOLUTELY FIRM - ANY OFFERS BELOW ASKING PRICE WILL BE IGNORED.
 
Thank you.
