Add VPI to the list as well. Excellent service every time. 
Top 5 Hamburgers
The Blazer is excellent, great fries. Also, Squires in Briarcliff makes a great burger. 
Record Clamps, which one and why?
I replaced the VPI weight on my VPI Super Scoutmaster Ref. Rimdrive a few years ago with Black Diamond Racing Round Things carbon fiber Record Clamp. Definite improvement in overall sound, better bass, soundstage versus standard VPI weight. Check ... 
Gingko or Symposium Ultra Platform??
My Ultra and Super Scoutmaster Ref. rimdrive sits directly on top shelf of a Billy Bags rack. 
Gingko or Symposium Ultra Platform??
I deal directly with Peter at Symposium for orders and advice. Roller blocks for turntables will not work under my VPI due to slight lateral movement. I use Symposium roller blocks under my CD transport. 
Gingko or Symposium Ultra Platform??
Suteetat, the round couplers are tapped in center to screw couplers together for greater height and clearance. This mates very well with the Symposium Ultra shelf. 
Gingko or Symposium Ultra Platform??
Suteetat, try Symposium Acoustics round couplers under your table instead of the speaker spikes. Call Symposium and speak with Peter for recommendation for your table with the Ultra. He will give you the best info on which coupler to use. 
What is approx. percentage of your total
Interestng responses, thanks! Keep them coming. 
What is approx. percentage of your total
I'm asking because I own about 600 records and I listen to maybe 10% on a regular basis. I'm curious as to someone who has a collection of thousands of records actually knows what they have and how they decide what to listen to. My head would spin. 
VPI Classic Platter- Naked or better with a mat?

Gingko or Symposium Ultra Platform??
Speak to Peter Bislewicz at Symposium Acoustics. I always found him to be very helpful and knowledgeable on this subject. 
Gingko or Symposium Ultra Platform??
Suteetat, my brass Bear Paws sit in small black anodized Symposium Acoustics couplers which have a center dimple in them for spiked feet. They work very well to bond Bear Paws to the Ultra shelf. I think you will like your Symposium Ultra under yo... 
Gingko or Symposium Ultra Platform??
Moon guy, 19 x 24 is what I use. I also highly recommend using Symposium Acoustics round couplers below the SAMA motor- 1 in front between the rubber feet and one in rear between the rubber feet. This eliminates any wobble from the standard rubber... 
Gingko or Symposium Ultra Platform??
Definitely the Symposium Ultra Platform. I have the Ultra under my VPI Super Scoutmaster Reference rim-drive. I used to have a Gingko under my Super Scoutmaster before I upgraded to rimdrive and had to remove it. The Gingko had 2 separate platform... 
What's your SDS setting?
60.14 for my Super Scoutmaster w/rimdrive.
