I have the Mk 4 upgrades (platter,etc) and have a SAMA on the way....can't wait.
...it's in the family room, so that option is out, since my wife is part of the decision making process.I've already listed it on AudiogoN and will find something smaller.
An odd warning about these tables ...I have no idea what the component make up is of the rubber feet, but they left permanent marks on our kitchen table that will not come out ...they actually penetrated the surface of the finish and left little black rings underneath. Must have been some sort of oil in the rubber?
If not, lacquer thinner, But then you'll have to effect a repair to the lacquer.
... with a set of Foculpods when doing a 'dry'run' on our REAL Brazilian Rosewood dining room tables. FOur oily dark spots. I was sick. After a few months they evaporated away or something, because they slowly vanished on their own. I suspect yours will do the same. If not, at least it buys you about 90 days to go find a mistress.. 8> )
But you need a bit of room on the left side to hit the motor on/off switch (Or use an extension ord with a switch).

I am a traditionalist and need a square/rectangular table with a hinged dustcover.So, I will either try a Linn or go back to a Thorens TD-160 Super.

I used some Sorbothane Focal pods under a CDP once just to isolate it from the wobbly shelf... reduced the vinyl wrap on the shelf to a pulp...I was popular that day, I can tell you...
We still don't talk about it.Cheers,
Many rubber feet used in Audio equipment sort of melts after time. I've yet to have problems with VPI's feet, but I wouldn't be surprised. I've had older PS audio feet turn into a messy gummy glob which was horrifying, as well as most rubber type audio feet (Iso pods, sorbothane, the Mccormack feet). Cheapest and easiest way to avoid furniture problems is to use a piece of saran wrap on each foot. You can wrap it up and have no problems with the acoustic properties.
