| Skeletal vs Plinth style turntables Hi CTI just love Parrots and Bees - nothing too sophisticated about that. When I use my real name I have always had some bizarre report from Hong Kong telling me about starving children needing $1000 usd in 24 hours to a foreign bank account.Sorry... | |
| Skeletal vs Plinth style turntables Dear CT 0517you say:I used to say to myself ...hmmmm looks like a hole / space there. Wonder what would happen if I filled it ? When an audiophile based on theory alone, said don't do that, its not right because of xxxxxxx, but showed no real dire... | |
| Skeletal vs Plinth style turntables Hi CT0517Hijack the thread all you like - ;)You said a few interesting things about the Platine, because the base is very much made of a similar material, by the sound of it, as the Technics Obsidian Bases or the Sony Reisinamic Plinths - both of ... | |
