Hm, Stitch. I do not know the history of the company too well but when I visited Micro in 2000, if I am not mistaken, than the guy who I met told me that he is the owner of the Micro and he was the main designer of Micro turntables. He did show me his patents with his name, in fact he made me copies of his patents. He name was long and Japanese; I cannot look it now as I am far from home. His short name was Cho-san.

I presume that nowadays anybody can claim Micro dependency and it is very possible that the guy who does the TT now was the Micro designer as well. It would be nice to know the reality of the Micro designers.

Probably you are right. I got the info above from the official Press release from the High End 2012 in Munich. All I did, was the translation from German Language to English.
Maybe they cheat the people with wrong information or they use the Seiki Brand for their own marketing...
