| Plinth ideas for DENON PD-80 DD turntable 75 and 80 are essentially the same. Looks exactly the same too except for the switch and knob which you will never use anyways. Just a thought. Other lower models are not worth the effort in my opinion. Og also put out a nice copper mat on it when... | |
| Plinth ideas for DENON PD-80 DD turntable The DP80 is a remarkable turntable. I’ve used one in a secondary system for a while. The sound is between the SP10/2 and belt drives. A good overall compromise. The 75 is easier to source. Basically the exact same as the 80 but without the pitch c... | |
| Plinth ideas for DENON PD-80 DD turntable Hi fast mick, I also have the DK2300double arm plinth. Too bad it wouldn’t take a 12”. Both the DK300 and the 2300 are really solid and well built. Get the feet changed and take it to the next level! | |
| Plinth ideas for DENON PD-80 DD turntable 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 was going to do it but it sold before I had the chance to do it. It’s basically a little pla... | |
| Plinth ideas for DENON PD-80 DD turntable Chakster. The stock DK300 is a nice plinth. Constrained layer. I had a DP80 with an FR64s on it. Actually sounded great. Sold it last year to a friend who really wanted it badly. Just picked up another DP80 on a stone plinth. Wondering if there ar... | |
| Ultrasonic cleaning with kirmuss and loss of high frequency details. Bose NC headphones cancelled everything out. Nice and quiet cleaning session. | |
| Plinth ideas for DENON PD-80 DD turntable Just bought a Denon DP80 and it came with a stone plinth. Cut out and mounting holes look like it’s made for DP80. It’s definitly vintage and most likely aftermarket made for Denon. Wondering what plinth it might be. | |
| Ultrasonic cleaning with kirmuss and loss of high frequency details. I use Bose noise cancelling headphones when I do cleaning. The vac machine and the US machine are both very irritating and noisy | |
| Ultrasonic cleaning with kirmuss and loss of high frequency details. I have the same machine. I don’t do what they do. All I do (for brand new or never cleaned records) is to manual wash and vac with a traditional machine then throw it in for a 5 min cycle. Then rinse clean and vac dry. Works well and it unlocks an... | |
| Ypsilon Phaeton + Marten Coltrane Tenor = which DAC? The Ypsilon DAC1000 just started shipping. Received mine a couple days ago and in the process breaking it in | |
| FR66s vs Ikeda IT-407 CR tonearms Yes, the Dennesen sound track tor is probably the best tool to set up your FR64 and 66 series tonearms besides his uni/smart tracktors. This was confirmed by Dertonarm before he made the Uni or smart tractors. He also told me that there are many f... | |
| Oracle Delphi mk3 is it worth it Make sure it’s an original mk3. There are many that have been partially upgraded and claimed to be a mk3. The mk3 is the turning point with new suspension towers. I have seen some mk2 retrofitted with new towers and usually a botched up job by ora... | |
| Best vintage DD turntables from the 70's and 80's? @chakster Yes I have a Micro Seiki cu180 on mine and centering works properly. The Micro Seiki CU180 does wonders to the sound. I had custom wooden armboards made for the table. Had a Fidelity Research FR66s and a Dynavector 507/2 on it. Served me... | |
| Best vintage DD turntables from the 70's and 80's? Yes it’s the top of the line. Yes self cantering. I am the original owner. Long story...bought it new old stock. A TechDas replaced it and it really made me realize how good the Nak was. I replaced it under the impression that it would be a big up... | |
| Best vintage DD turntables from the 70's and 80's? Not many lucky enough to actually see a TX1000 in action. I had mine for approx 13years. It’s one of the best tables around. Stacks up to many Uber high end tables. Finally replaced it last year. Debating if I should sell it or keep it. |
