As said, when mounted in certain plinth designs, in my assessment, struggles to get out of the way and has the potential to become quite noticeable to the point of being fatiguing after a period of listening.
Has not there been an endless period of time known off, where Plinths for ID TT's is the main talking point.
Is there not an Cottage Industry out there where the Plinth for ID TT's are the main product being manufactured.
A recent thread on the Gon, that covers this very subject makes references to the Plinth having been the cause of the listeners discontentedness. Especially after having invested Monies into a Bespoke Design Plinth, from a Cottage Industry Plinth Production Service.
Very Very few get the ID TT to function satisfactory as a right of the bat encounter. It takes quite a lot of investment in learning about the interfaces that optimise the design to produce a ID TT, that will stand out for being a strong contender when demonstrated in the Company of other TT Designs.
Many Many listeners of Audio Equipment, especially using the Vinyl Source, are today a lone listener. Who do not create opportunities to listen to other set ups, or have their Source used in other Systems, or are having the Source from other Systems used in their own system. These type of individuals usually only know what they know, and again many many of these types of user of Audio Equipment are a listener that is not willing to learn how to find a betterment for the set up they have produced. Occasionally an inquisitive individual comes forward, listens to proposed ideas, finds their own way to produce something bespoke and creates something quite special for their needs.
