    Kevin,

    One last final tip. I'd ditch the granite. I've also messed around with more turntable stand than I care to remember. Mass is probably good for sprung decks like the LP12 but not so good for the 1210. Granite rings like a behatch IMHO. You could probably do better experimenting with bamboo. My personal favourite is bamboo chopping boards from IKEA although Dunhelm also do something similar, you'll also get more out of your deck if you mount the chopping board on spikes or ball bearings!

    Regards

    Hey Andrew
    I have been in contact with Steve and will have an arm board coming soon.
    When I had a vintage set up I had a walnut turntable surround and isolation platform made.
    The isolation platform is 2"x15 1/2"x19 1/2" MDF with walnut veneer switching from the granite made a noticeable improvement

    Previous vintage set up

    Great news. You can squeeze a little more out of your deck by putting some ebony footers under the isonoe feet. See post #364 https://theartofsound.net/forum/show...-me-time/page8

    Thanks Marco. It's taken with the ubiquitous iPhone.
    It's a shame my AT33PTG/11 doesn't look right fitted to the AT headshell.
