Plinth ideas for DENON PD-80 DD turntable


While my pair of Victor TT-101 still sleeping in the storage, i decided to buy another Flying Saucer.

The DENON DP-80, vintageknob always have nice images and info about rare stuff...

On that page you see DP-80 with DA-401 tonearm for hich compliance cartridges (i have this tonesm NOS). It could be an interesting project, it was hard to resist ...

The question is the Plinth for this Denon DP-80.
The original DK-300 plinth is an option, but searching for something better i found this one.

Custom made plinth is always an option and i have superb Audio-Technica AT-616 pneumatic insulators to use under the plinth.

But what do you guys using with your Denon PD-80 ?

P.S. some companies now producing even an iron cast plinth and graphite plinth, i have no access to graphite, but iron cast here is cheap to make a custom plinth.

Dear chakster, There are shops who make all kinds of stuff from
acrylic. The most use laser cutting. For my former Technics SH-
10 B 4 plinth I ordered  3 arm boards for 3 different arms.
They use acrylic plates which can be glued together for whatever
dimensions. But you need to proved them with schematics. They
cost about 100 euro each.  You can use the arm board from
your Denon as example so the only thing you need to do is 
provide them with  the spindle -hole distance for each tonearm.
