Opinions: Neuance Shelf for Linn Sondek Lp12 TT

Rex, it sat with cdp on it for a week before I gave it a listen.

Just drove back from Chicago today after seeing The Dead Can Dance closing their world tour at the Auditorium Theatre. That was beautiful! and guess what was on my door step? The new Neuance A platform. I have broke it out of the box and set my Lp12 Sondek on it. Now to wait for it to settle in and my remarks will follow. Cheers!

Perfectionist, How did you set up your platform? Spikes steel/brass? or did you try Aurios Pro's under platform or in between platform and deck?

I was instructed by the maker to place a heavy weight on the platform for several days before setting it up. I used a lot of books.
I then placed it on my wooden stand. I used the screw in points (obviously face up). I then placed my SACD player on the platform.

Tighter everything and a lot more air.

(He also told me that some people who wanted possibly more detail could add the DH ceramic cones between the platform and the player. I bought them before I tried the platform, but decided that I was happy with the platform as is. I also didn't want to have my SACD player on the three points...less stability. I never even took the new cones out of the box.)

Actually, three points is more stable than four.

Cheers

If the entire unit were triangular, then three would be more stable, but, since my SACD player is not inside a stand, any pressure to the unsupported corners would tilt the unit.
