Levitation I leave for myself. As for the table, I used 1000Lb. rate Stanley wall brackets and bolted a pair to the underside a thick slab of rock maple cutting board. Lag bolted the brackets into wall studs. You can place a glass of water on the deck, jump up and down like a gorilla or smack the wall with your fist without inducing a ripple. I am left with only concerns of air-borne vibrations. On the other hand, I have placed it on a Osiris Giza component stand (sand-filled for a total of about 150lbs.) to similar effect, but the wall mount is easier to reach!
Suspension vs. non-suspension turntables???
Greetings all...
I am soon going to start the search for a new turntable. My trusty Roksan Xerxes is entering it's 15th year of operation and I think it's about time to look for something new. Having said that, I am looking for opinions on suspended tables, and non-suspended tables in the hopes of learning something about the advantages and disadvantages of each.
Surely both types have their merits, and I am trying to get a grip on which type might be most right for me. I am not necessarily looking for specific turntable recommendations at this point; let's face it we all know the usual suspects - Basis, VPI, Clearaudio, SME, Oracle, Teres, etc. I just am looking to find out if there is an advantage to either type of table.
Thanks in advance...
