    You would need to get the smaller resomat Peter for the 401 due to the platter having a lip. think its a 286mm. mine is a 300mm

    Oh my god! There's nothing wrong with the bidet is there?

    “Nothing discloses real character like the use of power. It is easy for the weak to be gentle. Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power. This is the supreme test. It is the glory of Lincoln that, having almost absolute power, he never abused it, except on the side of mercy".

    “You see these dictators on their pedestals, surrounded by the bayonets of their soldiers and the truncheons of their police ... yet in their hearts there is unspoken fear. They are afraid of words and thoughts: words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home -- all the more powerful because forbidden -- terrify them. A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”

    "You don't have free will. You have the appearance of free will.”

    “There's a war out there, old friend. A world war. And it's not about who's got the most bullets. It's about who controls the information. What we see and hear, how we work, what we think... it's all about the information!”

    I hated the platter damping rings on the 401 and found the isoplatmat covered all issues and sounded great.

    Thanks Geoff ... I'll try it naked to start with ...

    Years ago, I had a grease-bearing 301 with all the Bastin mods in one of his plinths. I sold it eventually because I found it dull and lifeless. In retrospect, I think part of the problem was me following Martin's advice and using not only damping rings, but also the original rubber mat on top of another foam mat. Actually, my abiding memory of that deck was its odour, which someone recently described as 'smelling like the inside of an Avro Shackleton, circa 1952'

    Was that with the Resomat?
    “Music has always been a matter of energy to me, a question of fuel. Sentimental people call it inspiration, but what they really mean is fuel. I have always needed fuel. I am a serious consumer. On some nights I still believe that a car with the gas needle on empty can run about fifty more miles if you have the right music very loud on the radio”

    The TD125 cost more than TD150 AND a TD124 added together when launched. How times change

    I know and what a load of nonsense. The 125 must be the biggest bargain in hifi; a high end deck at Rega 3 prices!
