By adding new controller software and 2 motors, the Blackbird exhibits less wow and flutter and lower bearing rumble. The Blackbird was made for vinyl lovers who wish to run two tonearms on one deck. Dr. Feickert may have made the simple upscale, but they managed to maintain the ease of use!Feickert's mission was to enhance the technical base of the Woodpecker to increase sound quality.
