The Mike New Technics Bearing

Mike

Also don't just promote your bearing , you manufacture a platter as well ;) That has sonic advantages :)

I am enjoying my bearing and ETP platter :D

A best buy bearing/platter combo for AoS members would do wonders ;)

Give an incentive and let economy of scale do the work for you.

Just my 2c

It will cost you more than 2 cents. :lol:

Good idea Tiff how much would you like to pay for a complete package: Bearing, ETP Platter and Bearing Base Plate.
suppose I throw in the Base Plate for a mere $150 to cover postage??

Hi Mike

How much would a ETP platter be with the brass weights, label recess and in exactly the same height/thickness of the original platter to the UK be? You can always PM me.

Hi Andrew,
The cost of an ETP Platter fitted with brass weights would be $1,150.00 inc postage.
I have not made one with brass weights for the last two years, people now only want the plane black finish.
I now use the standard 25mm thick blanks which everyone seems to be happy with.

Come on folks.
I have now got two deposits for Bearings from the next batch.

Hi Mike

But if I needed one in plain black (without weights and no label recess) so I can continue using my Oyaide Mj-12 mat (5mm) that I really like, how close to the original thickness of the sl platter could I get.

I'm using a Rega RB700 arm with already '3' 2mm machined Rega spacers and as you can imagine can't raise the arm much more. Maybe another 2mm and that's it.

I maybe I don't need the MJ-12 mat and can gain 5mm in extra height on the ETP platter?

Hi Andrew,
The Standard ETP Platter is about the same height as the OEM unit.
However you will not require the Oyaida mat as this will defeat the whole purpose and sonics of the my ETP Platter.
All you will need is a soft silicone mat such as the one which Technics used to offer with the circular rings.
Incidentally that mat is slightly dished and provides excellent clamping if using a centre weight.
