About the Stabi 2
The Kuzma Stabi Reference 2 (often referred to as 'Kuzma Ref 2') is a flagship turntable designed for the most demanding audiophiles. It features a robust, dual-plate sandwich construction for superior vibration damping and stability. The chassis is suspended by large springs submerged in silicone oil, achieving a low resonance of 2.2 Hz, which effectively isolates the turntable from external vibrations. The main base is supported by three aluminium and stainless steel spikes, while the top plate is easily leveled with four knobs. The platter uses a clamped sandwich design combining aluminium for rigidity and acrylic for damping, resulting in a highly stable and non-resonant platform for records. The mat and clamp are similarly constructed to further control vibration. The turntable is powered by two AC motors in a diamond drive configuration, with an inverted bearing featuring a ruby ball and separate oil baths for lubrication and vibration damping. The armboard also employs a sandwich construction for optimal performance. The only difference between the Stabi Reference 2 and its predecessor is the introduction of the PS REF 2 power supply in 2009, which provides precise, computer-controlled motor speed and further reduces vibration.
