That's the only car I've ever been in where you could visibly see the fuel gauge dropping.

The fuel tank swtich was a cool thing too.

The price comparison between music industry pricing and HiFi equipment is just embarrassing for the HiFi industry. I'm using a Berhringer USB 24/192 ADC/DAC with two inputs, high quality microphone...

What?? I pay less than that for my Mercedes E63 AMG with business use!.

I've had a clean licence for almost 20 years. Given the way I drive, that suggests a fairly lax enforcement regime ;).

I get your point though - performance cars have in a way become too much...

I like the Giulietta a lot in the right colour, in Quadrifoglio Verde guise, of course.

This one for me please!

+1 for the Singer 911. Very tasteful and beautifully executed classic 911 shape. The Wald looks horrific imo! The stance is all wrong and the roofline/glasshouse is too high. The old XJ was a much...

Hi Everyone

To conclude feedback on my experiment I have found the best sound seems to be with the SDS mat (the right way up), and Herbie's way mat on top.

There seems to be a slight step in...

There is another nice mod for that motor that helps reduce vibration even further. It s a brass bearing housing with a hardened steel ball that lifts the end of the motor shaft off the thrust bearing...

Thanks - I already have an appropriate IEC and mains fuse.. Was wondering if an additional fuse on the low voltage side was needed because of the problem that could short the DC side.

I'm using your PSU design, Ken. Where would you think the fuse is best placed? in the output from the PSU to the connector on the positive line? what fuse rating would be appropriate?.

Regards,...

Good one - many thanks. I think I will reconfigure my internal wiring to make use of the on/off switch, and mount an in-line fast blow 1A fuse internally on the PSU positive supply line.

That's a quality system for < £50. I think dumpster diving for the speakers is cheating slightly, but the Yammy and the Dual are great buys!

Yes, it does sit much better on the other side, at least the platter and mat are now rotating at the same weight. I think some adhesive tape might be good - I'll experiment.

I don't know the answer to your question, but i'm interested to try this for myself.

I externalised the transfomer, which is now hardwired to the board. It does take away a little from the...

Thanks Ian and RD,

I am currently having a listen with the SDS and Herbie's way, without a another mat under the SDS. First disk on was Yello - Stella and wow! suddenly lots and lots (possibly too...

I read that too some time ago - i guess the main damping for the platter is the rubber coating bonded to the underside of the platter. I'm not sure how much additional damping is possible by placing...

Thank You both for your suggestions. I must admit that I hadn't considered using the sds isoplatmat directly on top of the alloy platter - I had assumed that it wouldn't damp it effectively without...

I'd probably dump the lot and go for a pair of Devialet Phantom Golds and a nice holiday. :sofa:

If that was a step too far, a set of good active monitors would probably be the way to go if I was...

Hi,

First post in the Techiepedia for a long time.

I've just picked up an SDS Isoplatmat and Isocover soft TT mat (thanks to Mikeyb). I also have to hand a 3mm Funk acromat and a Herbie's way...

Designed by Peter Cormeau? he's pt together quite a few good sounding speakers over the years.
