Let’s see if I can remember how to upload a picture.... Here goes

My S.P.S with Classic Signature feet with Symposium isolators instead of the rubber ones.

It’s on top of a custom size Symposium Segue Iso platform

I've also spoken with Ken. Nice guy, real knowledgeable.
Yes Jay you get the screw down record clamp and washer, a felt mat (I don't use it) a stylus scale and a protractor that I would NOT use!

Ask them if you're getting the silver machined motor from the Prime instead of the Black one in the picture. I got the silver one. Much nicer. I ordered a nonblemished. 

The feet retail for $399 (Upscale)
The symposium inserts retail $225
The Segue ISO platform in medium weight 35-75 lbs I ordered custom from Peter for no extra charge from the closest size. I went with 21x17.
21x19 retails for $659. I paid less. Email Peter Bizlewicz at Symposium Owner/Engineer/Designer.

Great guy really passionate. We talked about the technology for 45 min, AFTER I already decided to buy the platform.

It comes with a silver top. Mine has the optional "stealth" (black) top for further isolation. The black would really make that white plinth stand out.

I regret ordering the feet isolators elsewhere before I spoke with him on the phone as he would have given me a better price since I was ordering the platform.
