JVC TT101 QL 10 PLINTH ISSUES


I got my JVC TT101 fully sorted out by Wllkinsons in the UK.

Unfortunately when it was sent to me the morons that are USELESS PARCEL SERVICES broke the lid and the feet.

Now I am in a conundrum.

1. Is the QL10 plinth worth keeping?
2. If worth keeping do I run it stock?
3. Do I do any mods to the plinth - if so, what?
4. what feet should you get for the turntable?

thanks

I went ahead and built a new plinth for my TT-101 that addressed some of the weaker points of its predecessor a non OEM custom
job.
Including multiple arm boards and acccustic deadening.
 
I have posted some pictures in my system link.

You will laugh at this. The arm it came with is an audio technica at12 that was mounted 15mm too close from spindle to pivot - god knows how he aligned the cartridge... New arm board I guess.

the usual turntable expert dog will have mounted it
If the stock Victor's plinth was as good as the Denon DK-300 plinth i would keep it, but as far as i know the stock plinth is not that good. 

The best feet are pneumatic Audio-Technica AT-616, so you can level your tt and isolate it on pneumatic insulators. These feet are universal, they don't have to be screwed in the plinth, just put them under your plinth (they can support from 10 to 60kg).

pity that they are rare to find, and your sales are overly expensive; when I can advise the Isoacoustics, the cost is economically bearable and they extend many pounds.
