Albert Porters after market panzerholz plinths


I would like to hear from anyone that has purchased a panzerholz plinth from Porter Audio or a panzerholz DIY project.
Reading through all that I could find on this subject it's obvious Mr. Porter did his home work on his design.
My question to those of you whom refurbished, replinth and rearmed some of these direct drives has it advanced analog playback for you?

Jonathan, I thought you were partners with Win Tinnon. I stood in the hallway with Win and spoke at length about how good the table sounded.

Maybe it was another show other than CES? I've covered almost every audio show and they sometime run together in my mind.
Dear Albert, Thanks for the further clarification on which turntable gets the Micro mat. I fully agree that the Micro and the Mk3 would go well together. My reservations only relate to using the Micro with the much lighter and much less torque-y Mk2. There are guys who do it, however.
Regarding mats, I have used the Audiolife mat (platter?) on my SP-10 Mk2 with no ill effect for a couple of years and this mat weighs 4.5Kg. The Cu-180 also sounds quite fine on this deck. Interestingly, when I had the Cu-180 on my Micro-Seiki SX-8000 it was significantly less dynamic than my Plattentellerauflage mat from Germany - worth looking into for very reasonable $$.
Radicalsteve,

Where did you get the Plattentellerauflage mat you mention that's made in Germany? What is the cost?
Hi Albert,

You were referring to the 2008 RMAF show, where OMA debuted the Saskia turntable created by Win Tinnon, for which OMA made the slate plinth and other slate parts. That was an idler drive turntable, not a rim drive (a rim drive does not necessarily use an idler wheel, for example, such as in the Teres product, or in one of the TT weights decks.)

OMA no longer is partnered with Mr. Tinnon, by the way.

See you in Denver,

Jonathan
