| About to Buy a Technics SP-10!? Am I making a mistake? If you can buy everything what's on your picture for $600 then buy it quickly! EPA-100 tonearm alone cost $1200 minimum. If SP-10mkII is working then the price is a steal ! | |
| Plinth ideas for DENON PD-80 DD turntable @genesis168 yeah, i know lower models are easy to find, but we're looking for the best only. Bought it out of curiosity, so much has been said about DP-80, i must try it. I'm also an SP-10mkII & SP-20 owner, but main machines in my studio are ... | |

| Plinth ideas for DENON PD-80 DD turntable Great, just ordered my DK-300, so everything must be like this. @genesis168 I also have a local friend who’s asking me for a tunrtable to ugrade his cheap pro-ject belt drive. So maybe this is not the last DP-80 i’ve bought. DK-300 stock plinth is... | |
| Plinth ideas for DENON PD-80 DD turntable @genesis168 The plinth is solid. Well made but the feet is the weak spot there. Poorly executed. The feet on the DK300 can be upgraded to Stillpoints or equivalent. I have my AT616 pneumatic feet, so i am well prepared to replace feet under any... | |

| Turntable Mat question @snafu011 I agree with Chakster 100%. The Micro CU-180 is the best I’ve used. I have tried numerous: leather, cork, felt, graphite, thick rubber, etc. and the CU-180 was clearly the best from the first. They are expensive and difficult to find, b... | |
| Would an Isolation TT platform further improve my TT? Seriously this is all you need: AT616 Pneumatic Insulator, on 4 of them you can place any equipment from 10 to 60 kg (and level each insulator individually). They are very rare, i've been looking for original manual for a long time and finally i g... | |

| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? A person who claimed for years and years on this forum that his "venerable" Astatic MF2500 (with LineContact stylus) is the best ever cartridge and the best in Astatic line, now claiming that "top of the line" models are different, so funny. He’s ... | |

| Turntable Mat question I don't use clamps, i use record weight on top of the CU-180 copper mat or SAEC SS-300 alloy mat, and let me vote for Micro Seiki again, because it's just a pure beauty - ST-10 Disc Stabilizer. | |
| Turntables and Trusting Online Reviews Personally i don’t care much about reviews, especially on turntables. Those guys does not review top quality vintage Direct Drive turntables anyway and most of them raving about cheap and ugly belt drive turntables, mediorce cartridges and tonearm... |
