Music Hall 9.3 Impresses Greg Weaver

"...this accomplished table has an infectious ability to present music amazingly realistically, with dynamic swagger as well as with body and space."

"...I was eerily taken with its consistent and almost effortless ability to liberate the message in the grooves."

"...the Music Hall mmf-9.3 distinguishes itself as a top performer, one that most LP lovers will find remarkable enough to be their "forever" turntable!"

Classic
Semi Automatic table with arm lift

$649.00
 
Touch sensitive speed controls
Includes dust cover and $100.00 factory mounted Music Hall Spirit phono cartridge


Andrew Robinson from Home Theater Review took the semi-automatic Classic for a spin and was mightily impressed.  Excerpts below.  

How does the Classic compare to much more expensive tables?
"I did find the (technics) 1500C to be livelier and more dynamic in comparison, but it was nowhere near as full, nor did it plunge as deep as the Music Hall Classic. Conversely, the (project) X2 may have been the most refined of the three, but it sounded rather lifeless compared to the Classic..."

This says it all:
"The biggest takeaway, for me, about the Classic's performance was that I kept wanting to listen to it."  

In Summation:
"...
you'll need to probably spend three times as much on a pre-configured table to make upgrading over the Classic truly worth it."

Soundstage reviewer Thom Moon shared a number of insightful and musical comments while praising the performance of the Music Hall Classic.

Playing Paul Simon's “50 Ways” on the Music Hall
"I noticed the solidity of the bass line. It wasn’t overpowering or boomy, but it had a heft I haven’t heard with many other turntables."
 
Bill Withers inspired me to pull out one of his best performances: “Just the Two of Us,” from Grover Washington Jr.’s Winelight
"...Washington’s evocative sax (there’s a lot going on) -- sounded nigh on perfect. And so, especially, did the pacing: every note from every instrument combined
to create a beautifully coherent ensemble performance."

 
“Four Brothers,” from a half-speed mastering of the Manhattan Transfer’s Live
"...One thing I hadn’t noticed before but did with the Classic was that the backing vocals had a real sense of physical separation from the band and superb blend
among themselves."

 
"At $599 and as plug’n’play as a ’table can be, the Classic is a must-audition. It’s a delight to use, and its included Music Hall Spirit cartridge extracts maximum
information from the groove."

"This is my new favorite turntable under $400, and Music Hall is to be commended for bringing it to the market for such a reasonable price.  If it performed just the same and said Rega or VPI on the box, it would likely cost over $1,000 and would still sell!"

"It is going to make a lot of newcomers to vinyl and those upgrading their starter turntables very, very happy."

AUDIOPHILIAC DISCOVERS ELVIS FOR THE FIRST TIME!

Steve Guttenberg, The Audiophiliac, states in his mmf-1.5 review for CNET:

"...Elvis spoke to me, his phrasing and power, and his band's rockin' rhythms got my juices flowing. The mmf-1.5 brought me closer to Elvis' music, the production and sound quality, which I never noticed before."

"...it digs deep into the music to reveal more about the subtle elements like reverberation and the atmosphere of the session, information that's way down in the grooves."
