I am glad you have an M7 phono. The caps inside are made by Kondo himself and they are among the bes... | |

| Exotic turntables. Eye candy Well, you can use anything you wish to build a plinth. High mass is recommended because that is a way to damp off the vibrations. As with all materials, there is a main resonant frequency associated with each different material. This is very impor... | |
| Exotic turntables. Eye candy Albert, Yes, you're right. The SP10 needs a dense and heavy wooden plinth. Baltic birch or maple ply/layers are definitely best suited for the job. Yes, I have seen the Wenge in a wood mill and it is a very nice wood. Somehow, wood adds a nice har... | |
| Exotic turntables. Eye candy Hi Albert, These guys are those from a different camp. I guess highly obsessive. BTW the SP10 MK2 can be a very nice sounding table. What are you going to use as a plinth? Pls let me know how you like the sound.Cheers | |

| Project Debut III vs. Music Hall MMF 5? I believe I can get a used OMP10 for a good price..but the 40 stylus...WOW! @$299. Was the OMP10 better than what was there? | |
| Project Debut III vs. Music Hall MMF 5? Hi Vegasears, What cartridge did you use on it? I want to do it on mine too. Are there any adjustments on the tonearm? Please let me know. I really like this mini turntable. It sounds great as it is but I'd like to squeeze everything I can out of it. | |
| Penny&Giles----where are they? Penny and gilles (P&G) make very high end pots. They are made in the UK. I believe they are still around. Do a google search. The last time I did, they have a wide range of pots available. | |
| Project Debut III vs. Music Hall MMF 5? Hi Bruno, good to see you're taking a dive into DD tables. The 1200 is an awsome table even for twice the price. If you can pull it off, get the KAB modded version. The tweaked version takes this already excellent table a huge step forward. Vegase... | |

| Nakamichi TX-1000 Platter It's just a mirror. You can cut another piece of mirror and replace the old one or better yet, pop the spindle out from the brass part (it comes off easilly)and get a better sounding mat for the tt.What happened to your glass mat? |
