Nice!

Yes Geoff, a Phonomac fettled AT-1010. It's quite simply superb. Had one on the Toshy (now sold and Collected) for about a month and it's really been an eye-opening experience. Can't wait to see how it sounds in the SP10

That combo will be awesome. You'll get some serious insight into your vinyl replay

That just looks fabulous.
Are they coupled inverted cone feet? I’m a bit surprised you didn’t go for magnetic levitation feet to get a bit more isolation.

Cheers Boyse,

They are! I haven't got the funds available for levitation feet and these were offered at the time of discussing the build with Angus. I presume he had them from a previous project and I'm happy to have them. One day, maybe I'll change them up but there is a thread developing on these feet on the forum with very good isolation reported.

I’m sure they will work just fine and Angus obviously knows how they work. (there are also some very good reports written on these feet)
I’m also struggling with the rising cost of the Denon plinth but have bit the bullet and gone for the Magnetic Levitation feet, as I understand they offer almost total isolation and still cheaper than the extortionately expensive Townshend Seismic Pods.

I'd be interested to know how it sounds in a minimal plinth - mines in 60kg of plinth and often thought about trying a less is more approach.

Well guys, the feet are a blow out. They couple directly to my plywood shelf and I get the most amount of noise transference from tapping shelf. So, isanoe or levitation feet are definitely the way to go. I suppose putting some dynamat on the shelf would solve it too.

Sound wise, it's so clean and precise it's unreal. I am extremely impressed. Angus's theory on the plinth is quite clever too, less mass means it takes less time for vibration (if any) to dissipate. Seems to work just fine!!!

Oh bugger, sorry to hear the inverted cone feet don’t do the job. I know I’ve already suggested the Magnetic Levitation Feet but how about swapping out your plywood top shelf for say.... 30mm Welsh Blue Slate... a cheaper option to try..... and if it don’t work, it can only look better

Sorry , but don’t rate the Isanoe Supports based on previous trials.

The TT is nice.

But I'm not entirely surprised at this:

I think the shelf is possibly more to blame than the feet. Why not consider a shelf that is acoustically dead, or at least as dead as you can get it?

Two sheets of stiff ply, spaced with small glued in blocks leaving a cavity of maybe half an inch, edges sealed with batons of course. Then the cavity filled with dried sand. I'd choose Leighton Buzzard sand for its irregular shaped and sized stone grains. You'd need a plugged hole for this of course.

That ain't gonna resonate!

You'd need strong shelf mounts though.
