Which is why we made a solid machined version of the plinth. After the platter was also damped, it was a very hard turntable to beat at any price. I have a Triplaner on mine.

Ralph,
I read your post about the Empire re-build you did years ago-
What was the epoxy you used to dampen the platter?
Happy Listening
