How good is the Obsidian plinth of Technics SP10 ?

Recently I heard an SP10 MK2 playing music at a friend's place. It was mounted on the stock Obsidian plinth. It actually sounded very good. I wonder how good is the Obsidian plinth compared to:

1. Typical after market birch ply plinths ?

2. Custom designed plinth like the Panzerholz plinths made by Albert Porter ?

Any ideas ?

Thanks @chakster .

@raulrigas, what are your impressions of driving the SP10 in the naked mode ? Do you advise getting a good plinth ?

I do not want extraneous magnetic forces to be found near the cartridge.

@jeschiotz SL1000mkII is probably too heavy for magnetic footers
