Gingko or Symposium Ultra Platform??



Which of these 2 platforms work better under a turntable?I would like to hear from user's who have tried both if possible.
Thanks

I deal directly with Peter at Symposium for orders and advice. Roller blocks for turntables will not work under my VPI due to slight lateral movement. I use Symposium roller blocks under my CD transport.
I just got reply from Peter who said that he would recommend roller block junior with g10 tungsten bearing over stacked coupler for my micro seiki.
I guess if your vpi has out board motor, it may have more problem with lateral movement but vpi classic or micro seiki, with on board motor, I don't expect problems with lateral movement except may be the first few seconds after turning the motor on
Hmmm... I just tried Rollerblock junior with Tungsten G10 ball. Quite interesting. In comparison to spikes, I lost a bit of the impact and slam on the bass but the sound is more evenly from top to bottom, smoother, richer in the midrange.
I may have lost a touch of sparkle on top as well. The spikes that I used are aluminum, locally made, look kind of like Avalon spike.
Hello,

I am considering a 18X24 Ultra Platform for my Super Scoutmaster rim drive.

I have a question. What kind of footers are under the Ultra Platform? Does it just lay flat on your shelf?

The top shelf of my rack is smaller than 18X24. I am currently using a 18X24X3 maple cutting board with cones installed on the bottom.

Any info would be appreciated.

Thanks

Tom
My Ultra and Super Scoutmaster Ref. rimdrive sits directly on top shelf of a Billy Bags rack.
