"As suggested, the GT-5000 is indeed 'Gigantic' and boy is it 'Tremendous'. Not only a perfectly matched source for Yamaha's 5000 series but it's a superb turntable/arm combination in its own right. A delight to behold and operate, the deck's sonic performance is as glossy as its finish, and right up there with the best... even with that straight arm that bucks conventional wisdom!"
