A Copernican View of the Turntable System

Hi Chris,
I believe you may have found the cheapest machine shop in the world?
$48 for four solid stainless steel legs including machining them to their points?
Simply amazing......cheaper than concrete perhaps?

The only thing that bothers me about them is their stability?
If you hold the turntable firmly with two hands......are you able to twist it back and forwards?
If so...... I suspect there could easily be movement of the deck when the motor is operational?

It will be interesting to hear your thoughts on the differences to the AT footers?

Dear Audpulse, With all respect, the Berning ZOTLs are fine amplifiers, but they are not OTL amplifiers in the normal sense of that acronym. This has all been argued ad nauseam, and I am with you, if you were to say it does not matter. What matters is they are very good sounding amplifiers designed by one of the true geniuses in audio.

Halcro, Is the SP10 as stable as you recommend to Chris that it needs to be, when mounted on AT616 feet? How would that be unless there was some sort of physical anchoring between the SP10 chassis and the tops of the feet? (You are not the only one who knows how to use a question mark?)

Lewm,
Valid question??

Dear Chris, Your mother is a wise lady. You should not mess
with doubtful persons. One of them is a traitor. He ordered
a plinth from, will you believe this , Moldova. Former Romania or so. But the price is nearly as cheap as your steel footers ($110; ebay.com) and probable more stable. I intend to put those Still-points underneath to get, say,
Albert Porter (cheap) plinth version for my SP 10 mk II.

Regards,

Hi Nikola - I can do better than that. I have a 7 layer Canadian baltic birch sp10 plinth sitting idle. I can send it to you to try if you like. But you would have to pay for the shipping. Its over 50 lbs. Let me know if interested.

Hi Henry - will post the SS footers info on the Nude TT thread - I see its front page again.

Cheers
