| Using Maple Butcher Block Under a Turntable And I forgot to mention that some of the most expensive vintage and new turntable plinths use the same technique also, except with a butcher block and a lot of the newer turntables on the market today, there is hardly none to no void - for the vib... | |
| Using Maple Butcher Block Under a Turntable @invictus005 ,You’re actually half right. Sometimes people have nothing else better to do. I found my 1-1/4" thick butcher block at my aunt’s house. It was at least 20 years old and hadn’t been used in years. This particular block had round feet m... | |
| Using Maple Butcher Block Under a Turntable I also have used these Hudson Hi-Fi Silicone Isolation Feet (4 Pack, Soft Block 60lb capacity) for speaker, cd player and receiver feet. The above items and these here are by Hudson Hi-Fi and cost very little for what they do.https://www.ebay.com/... | |
| Using Maple Butcher Block Under a Turntable @bpoletti I used these Hudson Hi-Fi 4x 2.5" Platinum Silicone Hemisphere Bumper Non Skid Isolation Feet w. Adhesive - that were reasonably priced for my butcher block turntable base. They are easier to use and don’t have the sticky tacky feel of s... | |

| Need help with Subwoofer upgrade @rmiller01, within or maybe just a little more of your price range check out Power Sound Audio subwoofers vented and sealed and if you get a chance to listen to any particular sub do so and trust what you hear and like. To me the best way to 'ear'... | |
| Technics Sp10 Mk2 vs SL-1200G - I finally did an A/B @tzh21y,I suspected as much. I have never understood how the ’professional reviewers’ could review an item with no burn/run in time. At least @pani took 2 weeks or more to try and give a proper listen.@pani,I too at one time owned a phono pre that... | |
| Technics Sp10 Mk2 vs SL-1200G - I finally did an A/B This may sound like a rookie or newbie question cause I can’t even afford the turntables you good folks reference above, but doesn’t the SL-1200G’s hardware, peripherals, even down to the tonearm, headshell wires and interconnects all have to be b... | |
| TT mats @perazzi28 Sorry good folks for coming to this set so late. I also use this inexpensive tweak but high quality GEM Dandy rubber cork compound mat and you can hear the difference between it and the stock mat. The GEM Dandy rubber cork compound mat... | |
| Moving from MM to MC @bimasta,Good call, I forgot about the platter mat and the effect it has on the turntables overall sound. The one I use is the inexpensive tweak but high quality GEM Dandy rubber cork compound mat and you can hear the difference between it and the... | |

| Vandersteen Sub woofers v Rythmik Subs Hi again good folks here, can you all expand on the type of headroom the Vandy’s have? How do they sound when everyone is away, you’re the only one there in the house and you really crank them up playing the best recorded music stuff you have? I w... |
