| Anything you can put between spikes and carpet? I use concrete stepping stones. They come in 12" and 16" sizes. And are cheap. I paid $1.39 ea. for my 12 inchers from Home Depot... | |
| Speakers for low power SET, nearfield, low volume? I would check out the Tekton Designs M Lore tower. I know you said no towers but this speaker has a small footprint and has the port in the front of the speaker. There are some awfully good reviews of this speaker out there.

| effective mass of Jelco tonearms My Denon DL-130R balances just fine with my 750D. And I think is a perfect match compliance wise. I plan on rebodying the 103R with a aluminum body some day. That's when the heavier counter weight will come into play... | |
