Thanks everyone, yeah I'm delighted with it, looks great, and a quick listen at low volume before work this morning sounded really good.

That looks lovely Mike, I often thought about going down the DD route myself, from what I understand it can offer some great benefits over belt or idler if you get it right. Be interested to here on your listening thoughts.
Listening is the act of aural discrimination and dissemination of sound, and accepting you get it wrong sometimes.

Looks great and can imagine it sounds wonderful.
I think a new plinth for my SP10 is next on my wish list and that one looks terrific.

Easy enough to find one and buy the extra bits tooOriginally Posted by alcarmichael
You'll not go wrong with an SME mind you, I lusted after one for a while, then went completely off the look of them for some reason. Strange because I used to dislike the look of the SP10, how the mind works eh?

Liking how it sounds so far, won't get much if a listen until the weekend, or if forecast is right about rain here tomorrow
I've 40m of hit and miss fencing to paint (most likely twice) over next few days
Angus makes a great job of these, this one is actually setup for taking a different arm in the same slot, in case I want to buy one of Angus's 1010 arms later. Ok there's one screw hole visible this way but you can't really see it unless you look directly down on the deck. Thought I might as well future proof the Plinth at much as I could without a separate armboard. Will I change the FR arm? Maybes aye, maybes no
I will Ian, it's sounding really good right now, very pleased with that and how it looks.
