Stillpoints LP Isolator Record Weight

If you're going to try the StillPoints LP Weight and own a VPI table, make sure you get the model that is drilled out for a long spindle. I don't think the Stillpoints weight fits on Classic platters unless it's drilled out. At least the model we used at the 2012 Vegas Show didn't fit quite right.

Where can one obtain Hitachi Finemet beads? Are they the same as Finemet Cores?

Geoffkait, you can see the Hitachi FineMet webpage easily, but buying them is hit or miss now. I think they are basically made for the military. But you can find them on Ebay occasionally.

There is the promise soon of access to some of the many sizes through a Japanese company. Right now, this company is focusing on manufacturers. I now have pigtails using two sizes for use with powercords. One has only a 1.7 mm inside diameter and the other is about 5/8 inch. The gauge of wire that can be used with the small ones means these power cords probably shouldn't be used on amplifiers.

Hullo, I realize this is an old thread, but perhaps someone still looks at it and can help me. I just read in Roy Gregory's review that the Stillpoints LPI may be too heavy(?) for my Linn LP12's suspended deck. Does that mean I should not use it there? Any info on this would be much appreciated.
Thanks

Agriculturist, I can see this on a spring suspended turntable, but at THE Show I saw it demonstrated on a broad range of turntables with great benefit. Some of these were spring suspension tables. I have an extra that I will sell.
