Is that when I modeled a turntable with the tonearm mounted to the plinth it picks up the resonance of the table every time.Whether the resonance is motor based or accoustic feedback the resonance is there. It may be down 16db or more but it is right there.
With a cantelevered armboard the resonance is choked down many more db. The only requirement is to rigidly couple the armboard and that is the same as gluing up a bunch of layers of plywood or MDF.
When Mannfred88 posted that my Rek O Kut outplayed a 3k dollar Sota Saphire rig I think that should have caught a great deal of attention. Cantelevered armboards work extremely well and should easily outperform any direct mounted tonearm.
Of course strapping a tonearm on 3 lbs of steel....that would be interesting to measure! No bets on that test!
My new LP-34 will have a cross cantelevered armboard. I wish I could patent the idea, but it is far too basic and pedestrian. The top piece of the platten will be maple and the tonearm will attach to that point.
The idler interface will be accoustically decoupled from the maple.
We will see how this flies..... I am told that the devil is in the details.
If I can get the table together by next weekend, ScottRT and MintVinyl can tell you what they hear.
