Hello everyone,
I'm Jose from Plinthsforturntables >>> my online store on Etsy.
First of all, thank you very much for your nice comments to Jbhiller, I'm very glad that you are satisfied with your Technics plinth :)
On the other hand, I wanted to thank Avanti1960 for his comments, and in passing comment that he is referring to floating plinths, which need the use of the platter system to keep the plinth in its floating system. This is a subject that can give for many hours of talk, but that is constantly improving, and that at the moment enjoys an update in the fixation mechanics that has improved the stability issue notably.
I would like to point out that the socket model referred to by Jbhiller is the XL model.
This model does NOT use the floating system, due to the sensitivity of the legs of the GAE/GEG model, so it totally dissociates itself from the probable handicaps that Avanti1960 has mentioned.
Keep in mind that every invention in this life, needs an idea, a design, its trial and error, and that we are talking about a very striking and particularly elegant product that can be loved by some and rejected by others, the work in these things is millimetric :)
I also invite you to write me, if you like, privately for any questions. I will be happy to help with schematics, photos, videos, etc.
I would like to upload some photos of the XL plinth but I can't find the way at the moment! (help would be great in this point :)
All the very best
Jose
