| Feedback through turntable The no slip carpet padding is incredibly minimal, maybe 1-2 mm thick. Wooden coasters wouldn't work because they would slide too.. I need something non slip. I could sand small divots in the platform for the balls to rest in... | |
| Feedback through turntable @slaw.. you're funny, I like how particular you are. Yes, you are right, I do owe you thanks for bringing up the idea of springs. So thanks! Also for the idea of getting rid of rubber. That's where the wooden balls for rega feet idea stemmed from.... | |
| Wondering about jumpers.. Was that really worth bringing this thread back from the dead? | |
| Feedback through turntable Geoff, sorry, got my threads mixed up! | |
| A Big DIY Bang for Your Buck? @czarivey your post made no sense until I looked at the title of the thread. Ha! DIY indeed. Well done and enjoy! | |
| Feedback through turntable Geoff- I will say that I'd try little bowls if there was a believable explanation for how they work and what they do.. I'm not a total reductionist, so I don't shoot things down if they aren't ideas in the mainstream, but my mind does need somethi... | |

| A Big DIY Bang for Your Buck? Not sure about strength, but they are definitely neodymium. They're only 1/2"long and 1/8" square in cross section | |
| A Big DIY Bang for Your Buck? @sabai damn, I tried some magnets I had laying around: super strong, taken from an old MacBook. They made a very noticeable difference. For the better, so far, but I like to listen for a while to truly hear the strengths and weaknesses of any chan... | |
| A Big DIY Bang for Your Buck? Rooms full of little bowls definitely do not pass my WAF | |
| A Big DIY Bang for Your Buck? Rub it with a pencil and be done | |
| Too Much Power? Ah, but lots of headroom can help a system sound clear and tight..A lot depends on desired listening levels too. | |
| Feedback through turntable @slaw dude, chill. I’ve had a busy weekend and I just finished installing the springs on Thursday, so I’ve hardly had time to report back. I didn’t realize thread loyalty was a thing. I bought some 2" compression springs with a spring rate of ~9lb... | |
| A Big DIY Bang for Your Buck? @sabai what type of magnets did you use in your PC connectors, and how/where did you mount them? |
