Interesting. My TD124 plinth (also by Russ) is also layered cherry (though it has a solid sapele surround and latterly leather on the top) and I'm very happy with that.Originally Posted by da2222

So many options, so many flavours. Garrards are a pain, to lock down what might suit.

I'm in Colinson as well, for now 5-6 years. I can wholeheartedly recommend his work.

RC cherry plinth and 401 motor heat
I like it utilitarian. Basic, very affordable, performant.
IMO it looks and works just great. Had an American made Walnut thing before - this is better.

What I love about the collinson plinths is that you can inset the turntable with the RJC it is not possible. Have to say russ does finish them nicelyLayers Of Beauty , Russ Collinson 401

Yes, being inset, it sits practically flush with the plinth..
Sounds great to these old ears too..
I Must now get me some Townshend Pods to sit it on
