Difference between Brinkmann Bardo and Oasis?

Thanks, Captain. You're thinking of the Bardo with all the options. The Oasis has the same drive, platter, and bearing but comes stock with the crystal mat and clamp in a wood plinth (cherry in my case). I'll use either my Tri-planar or Phantom with it, and just the stock PS at first.

Any update Wrm57?

Keen to hear about the Brinkmann, especially with either tonearm you settle upon..

Hi Ps68,

Shipping was delayed while additional armboards were drilled, so it's not here yet. Judging by the tracking info, it ought to be landing at LAX around now (am I eager or what?), about to clear customs and head north. I'll report back after we get acquainted. I'll be using a Tri-planar to start because my Phantom II is with Bob Graham at the moment.

This is an old thread, but I have a Bardo now and have been scouring the web, well cause that's what I do. My question is does anyone use a platter mat, and or a clamp/weight other than what Brinkmann provides.

@huang

Does your Bardo have the Brinkmann crystal mat?
