Actually i was inspired by
this idea of using Micro Seiki bracket/armboards for other turntable, i also have Victor TT-101 (actually two of them).
This is not new because i’ve seen something similar before on
Verdier turntables. And then
OMA turntable with similar arm boards too.
Pretty good idea ? I am not interested in anything but a Direct Drive, a turntable in the middle of this kind of "plinth" can be anything, like Victor tt-101 or Denon DP-80.
Long time ago i’ve seen a custom made plinth by Steve Dobbins, the arm board also cab be rotated and fixed by one bolt, just like on his
Kodo The Beat turntable.
After all these i realized that Micro Seiki
arm boards designed for
DDX-1000 and related turntable is ideal solution and with an appropriate custom bolt cab be fixed to a custom plinth. Not bad, right ? Worth to ask about DDX-1000 turntable ?
Micro Seiki made several turntables for use with those nice brackets, the DDX-1000 is the cheapest among them.
DDX-1500, very expensive
SX-8000 and
this monster also designed for the same bracket/armboard.
So i believe this method has been approved over the years not only by Micro Seiki engineers, but also by next generation of enthusiasts and custom plinth makers?
And there must be a better Direct Drive from Micro, which one ?
Thanks
