wizmax on the wam has an original Obsidian plinth he is looking to move on, though he's not put it in the classifieds yet.
I only found out today whilst at his for a brew and chat.
Hi James,
I've looked at the SP10 on and off for years and it is clearly a great / special turntable.
However, You may or may not know that it is widely acknowledged to be very much affected / influenced by the plinth it is sited in.
As such I'd recommend you do as much research as you can.
There's literally reams of info, opinion and experience online from forums, owners etc.
I've read and researched the topic loads myself.
You want to get the best out of a deck of this calibre.
The Obsidian wasnt a cheap Technics option for the SP10, either way reviewers didnt exactly find it to be perfect or best option as a platform for displaying the SP10's strengths in terms of sonics.
Many have either gone slate, concrete, a mix of materials or various different woods including panzerholz.
I would recommend you read as much as you can online and even ask here.
It'll help inform your decision for the best IMO

25 Kg of slate works very well here
