#測評分享 轉速是否穩定,評者以鋼琴與薩克斯風為先。Merlin NEO 並無晃動。Monk 與 Coltrane 那張,空間打開,樂器各安其位;低音大提琴與鋼琴下盤尤具現場的重量。本為檢驗速度而來,後來把整面聽完。
John Martyn《Solid Air》半速母帶,細節與層次都在,曲子後段的空間與效果不會扁掉。評者自己的 Technics 1200G 配 Ortofon MC 90X 更細一點、多挖一點槽裡的東西,但不妨礙這套的享受。機器大多讓開,不把一種個性硬加在唱片上。試聽機裝的是 Acoustic Signature MCX-1;原廠零售套裝不含唱頭,評者認為合理,臂與盤還吃得下更貴的頭。
Stereolab 那張,人聲層次分開,結像穩,低頻有分量卻不腫,不是盤自己加厚。有夾盤時,穩重再多一點。總的聽感:準、清楚,自身色彩不多。1200G 在某些說不清的地方仍勝一籌;若偏好皮帶盤,這套會讓不少人聽得進去。

Speed was judged first by piano and saxophone. The Merlin NEO did not wander. On the Monk and Coltrane set the room opened and each instrument kept its place; the double bass and the lower piano carried a live weight. He had come to test consistency, and stayed for the side.
John Martyn’s half-speed Solid Air kept its detail and its layers; the space and the effects at the end of the cut did not go flat. The reviewer’s own Technics 1200G with an Ortofon MC 90X was a little finer and pulled a little more from the groove, without spoiling the pleasure of this set. For the most part the machine stepped aside and did not stamp a character on the record. The sample wore an Acoustic Signature MCX-1. The retail pack leaves the cartridge off, which he thinks is right—the arm and platter will take a dearer head.
On Stereolab the voices sat in layers, the image was steady, and the low end had weight without swell; the deck was not adding thickness of its own. A clamp added a little more solidity. The impression overall: accurate, clear, little colour of its own. The 1200G still leads in places that are hard to name. Anyone who prefers a belt deck, he thinks, will find this set easy to live with.
