    Default Diy Turntable almost finished

    Got the idea from the acoustic solid range of wood tables MPX especially

    Using Michell gyrodec main bearing platter and DC motor - RB250 arm polished with AO complete silver rewire and weight upgrade

    I have tried to decouple the armboard and arm with O rings and sorbathane foam stuff

    getting there - motor stand done - now need to build and isolation platform

    So far though to my ears it sounds very nice - if anyone in the Essex area or further if they want to travel would like to cast an educated opinion that would be great
