I just received a package of Darumas.There are absolutely no instructions with them at all.
Probably doesn't need instructions, but I would think some manufacturer insight would be helpful.
For instance, the puck-like portions have either a flat circular cutout or a spherical indentation. Which side goes on top? Based upon the label on the puck, I would assume that the flat circular one does, but we all know what assuming can do.
Further, the top pucks shift about underneath my transport and no matter what I do I cannot get them to be "straight". I have balanced the transport to the best of my abilities with a bubble level, thinking that shifting weight is the culprit, but it seemed to have no effect.
And should I have them close to the outside of the transport or close to the inside? At first I thought outside. But maybe I'm wrong.
And the transport shifts about when I touch the buttons or change CDs. I guess this is nature of the beast, but it seems to be a bit ... well... unstable.
Follow Ups:
Randy..
These things are empirical hell.Basically the ball rests between the machined concave cups (seem to remember that they are packaged this way..?) - the system correctly set up will be self centering at rest, but should be able to move freely (and the longer they take to come to rest the better).
I suspect from your post that you are using the FLAT surfaces to 'contact' the ball - this will not self center, and the audible results may not be 'optimum'..
As always YMMV, but do a search on this and DIYRAMAs (yep the DIY crew has chewed this beauty)..

Daruma product of high engineering, if transport not flat then not fault Daruma.> At first I thought outside. But maybe I'm wrong.
Outside most stable.

Yhat's the whole point of Z-isolation.
