Stillpoints LP Isolator Record Weight

I was using the LPI on my Technics SP10. The difference it made compared to my TTW weights was not subtle. It brought a level of clarity to playback that was prevously missing. It's expensive, but IMHO, worth the investment.

I say "was" above, because I recently replaced the standard SP10 platter with a newly developed copper/gunmetal unit from Artisan Fidelity. With the new platter, the LPI did not contribute anything over my Kuzma Strobi or standard Artisan Fidelity weight.

Catastrofe, I presume the new platter was a substantial improvement. Copper and gunmetal; sounds interesting.

I once had a Finial Audio solid copper string driven tt. I weighed 285 pounds! At that time it cost me about $11,000. Now, with the price of copper, I can just imagine.

The weight was my problem. I couldn't trust most racks that were available then.

Tbg, I just bought a Sindre. What did you put under the spikes ? Could you send me a private message? Tnx

Mattheus, I guess I don't know how to send a private message.

I never used the spikes that came with the Bergman. I used a StillPoint Component Stand and first used SP Ultra SSs and later Ultra Five on the Component stand under the Bergman. I also used their LPI record weight.

Just to make your choice a little more difficult, you should also consider the HRS weight as well. On the VPI turntable would keep the peripheral ring regardless of what weight or clamp you choose.
