ateal " ... I
have learnt that the current location of my springs in relation to the
suspension housing is at the limit recommended in the manual, i.e. when i
lift the sub platter my springs are flush with the suspension housing
and no excess springs are showing underneath. This setting places the
suspension housing 18mm (not 21mm) above the acrylic base.
I think this is why my suspension is quite springy and gives me plenty of bounce cycles. What I may do is re-do the suspension making sure I am 21mm from the acrylic base and in turn this will keep a little of the spring showing under the suspension housing and slightly firm up the suspension ... "
As I recall, adjusting the Delphi III's tower height does not change the tension on the springs - only their height. The turntable is designed to be "springy" and performance will likely suffer if you try to "firm up" its suspension.
