What goes beneath your Nottingham?

When I had a Spacedeck I replaced the stock base with a Mapleshade 4" thick maple block. Huge improvement. Never did get around to messing with the orig. rubber feet, but that also should improve things.

I have my Spacedeck on a heavy welded steel rack, so I first used isolation in the form of Vibrapods and Vibrapod Cones.. This worked well with the stock Spacedeck and base.

But..

Later on I found a thread on Audiogon which spoke about placing one raquetball into a vibrapod base for a suspension system identical to the Gingko clouds.

I tried 4 black Ektelon raquetballs on Vibrapod bases, each holding 10 lbs of the 40 lb Spacedeck.
This worked perfectly for me.. it gave an immediate increase in transparency with deep and tight bass, and a drop in the noise floor. (and it even looks good with the all black Spacedeck) It sounds so good that my search has ended for upgrades to my analog source.
Thanks Again Audiogon!

May I suggest a Lenco? Sell the Not.
All the $, weight, platforms, springs, balls and tweaks will not help to bring the
magic of music from the grooves. It will get you close, but...
I see the Nottingham, like W.C. Fields see's women- "nice to look at, but I
wouldn't want to have one". They are cool looking and seeing them in a
movie really raised their appeal.
But, many folks "had" the Nottingham. Not sure if it was replaced
or merely got out of vinyl all together (frustration).
Simple is better. Better for the money spent and definitely for the results.
IMO, the Lenco is far superior and you will never look back.
Lest I forget:
Remember, friends don't let friends use belt drives.

A sustom Neuance self sits under my Hyperspace. Looks and sounds great!

for Joe55AG...Gingko balls are not tennis balls. They are solid - not air filled, and are of a different size. The results are different- better- than tennis balls
