Designed to accommodate up to four reading arms with an effective length between 9 and 12 inches, the Spyder uses a very elegant architecture that stands out for combining minimalism and flexibility in equal parts to the point that it can be placed in a wide range of positions regardless of the number of arms installed. Of beautiful and striking formal minimalism, the body of the Spyder is formed first of all by the main block, which houses the rotation system (axis/bearing) itself, to which is added a robust “necklace” that surrounds it with symmetrically arranged perforations whose purpose is to facilitate the attachment to said block of the “legs” corresponding to the different reading arms. The traction system used is a belt with a 12-pole, 4-phase synchronous motor, which in turn is governed by an external transistor power supply that the user can optionally replace with one of the exclusive valve designs signed by the company itself. Brinkmann . For its part, the bearing scheme used is an advanced maintenance-free hydrostatic design while both the platter itself and the chassis use one of the German firm's legendary anodized aluminum alloys with optimized resonance.
