Albert Porters after market panzerholz plinths


I would like to hear from anyone that has purchased a panzerholz plinth from Porter Audio or a panzerholz DIY project.
Reading through all that I could find on this subject it's obvious Mr. Porter did his home work on his design.
My question to those of you whom refurbished, replinth and rearmed some of these direct drives has it advanced analog playback for you?

Thanks, Mike, for the info on your "copper tops". We've discussed this before, and I should have remembered that those surfaces belong to the respective platters, not to any mat.

Logenn, or anyone, as long as you have the correct adapter in place so that proper rotational speed is achieved (the name of the part escapse me), can you tell me a reason why a Garrard will sound any different with a 60Hz AC supply vs a 50Hz one? I've read endless arguments about the effects of high vs low voltage on the performance of that motor, but this is the first time I have seen anything about the effect of frequency.
If you go to Loricraft's website and read their explanation of the benefits of their motor controller, keeping the 301 motor operating at 50 Hz keeps the motor running at optimum efficiency.

The benefit is the motor is running smoother and quieter at 50 Hz vs 60 HZ, with less noise and vibration. Their tests show added noise when operating at 60 HZ.

Once again every attempt is being made to elevate the 301s ability to provide a quiet stable platform so that the tonearm/cartridge can retrieve as much micro detail as possible.
Hello Fellows, I am not trying to hi-jack this wonderful thread but I have a question about wall voltage and it's effect on not only tt motors but amps, pre-amp etc. Logenn's comments above caused me to think about my situation.
I live appx. 4 miles from a large hydro-electric power generating plant and the wall voltage in my home typically runs from 122 volts to 124 volts. What affect ,if any,does this have on the above mentioned components, particularly the tt motor?
Thanks,
Carter

i have the same Loricraft PSU 301 AR power supply for my Garrard 301 as Logenn that regenerates the 50hz power. it sounds wonderful. unfortunately i have not heard it any other way so i cannot say how much it improves things.

i do have a hydro power about 8 miles from my home and my own transformer for my home in a newer subdivision of acreage lots. so my street power is pretty good (or at least i thought it was).

last week i installed a 'whole system' 10kva Equi=tech balanced isolation transformer; the 10WQ wall cabinet system. this has made huge performace improvements on every component in my system including my tt's. my viewpoint on 'good power' will never be the same.
