“Music has always been a matter of energy to me, a question of fuel. Sentimental people call it inspiration, but what they really mean is fuel. I have always needed fuel. I am a serious consumer. On some nights I still believe that a car with the gas needle on empty can run about fifty more miles if you have the right music very loud on the radio”

Looks bloody fab mate. like a beautiful piece of Japanese furniture with the exposed panzer on the plinth sides. Ive gone for a similar look on my articulating armboards but with ebony veneer on top.
I just know that will be one of the best sounding spinners you are ever likely to come across . Nice work

Thanks Karl and hope you're keeping well.
As you likely know, I love and appreciate the application of wood in hi-fi, both aesthetically and sonically.
That Santos rosewood you have there is gorgeous too - beautiful finish !

A JOY to behold. Grand and stately looking.
Below the Plinth is a slab of marble. I understand Indian granite is dense.
Usually most prefer for whatever reason Obsidian marble which seems to be the originl base. I dont own any of this but I had a lesser model SL1210mk5 whch I sold off as I didnt have the time for the dedication.
Must have brought you hours of immense pleasure.
Some very dedicated isolation devices I noitce. Happy listening !

Thanks Ying, Yeah, you're right, hifi does indeed take time and dedication, not for everyone as it can be hard to fit it in with everything else going on in life sometimes, I totally understand.Originally Posted by baguadao

Cheers David, Delighted in a word, it's been a lot of learning, juggling, sacrifice, patience, pain, frustration - you name it, all rolled into one so I'm very grateful.

Thank you Paul!

The 'isolated button on the plinth' is in fact the stylus guard - the deck was in full action when I took the pics
The record weight is Pathewings Panzerwood. They do different weights as well 290g, 360g and 470g. Was love at first sight, hence I sold the weight I had at the time to fund this one
I thought I'd been a bit indulgent price wise at the time but hey ho, was a treat to myself, had to have it.
Came across this the other daya looker but made me realise I'd done good.....
