    This will surely give a 'different' presentation, maybe more expansive but that's purely a guess obviously.
    The valued sound is very very opened, the low ones are exceptional, rapid, dry and full of details. The sound is very musical and rich in detail.

    In one on the photos you have put the chassis upside down and covered it with a black material. What material is that? Is it for damping?
    Yes, it is a material of similar characteristics that the DINAMAT calls Amortson

    Ah yes! I thought that might be the case. I have put Dynamat in my Technics SL1200 as well. But I have mainly put it around the Bearing.

    Hi,
    I am a good friend of Manuelīs although we live at opposite ends of Spain. In fact it was from an email conversation with him that the idea of using a 1200 as a replacement cropped up after his sickening experience with his Denon original - he had only had the plinth made for the Denon a few weeks before the speed control went kaput - at least with a 1200 he will never have trouble finding parts !
    If any members want more detailed explanations, I can do the translating.
    I think the rod sticking out of the bottom of the motor housing is meant to work as a sort of drain for vibrations but he hasnīt implemented it yet.


    Chris.
