I could get the fan favourite IKEA butchers block and stick these on for a third of the price. https://isoacoustics.com/stage-1/ 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kids were jumping around near the tt whilst playing and no issues 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm pretty sure I have one lying around somewhere, must check what the rating is. Alternatively I could always look at one of the Gieseler power supplies. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey mate, as you can see from the photo the motor is located to the left of the feet so you'd need space to support the motor. Distance from edge of motor to the foot on the right is about 35cm and the distance from the back foot to the front is about 28cm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've got the top/side of an IKEA Kallax to put it on which looks like a fit from your measurement. My box has the sound of something lighweight moving inside. Not quite a rattle but it's concerning.

eman Posted August 10, 2020 Share Posted August 10, 2020 Hey. Just puting mine together. There's a sleeve that fits the outside of the motor but with it in place it covers the DC plugin and lifts the motor off the base. Also it's not shown in the contents list or on a Google image search. I can't see where/how it's supposed to be included. This is a 'Refurbished' unit. Wondering if it's a 'leftover' bit from being an international AC version. Any other ideas ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happy to have this table to replace my others lost in Bushfires but 'Refurbished' by Convoy means it's not packed as original , and has other extra 'details' to deal with. 'Refurbished' also looks like it means "we took the cartridge out" too. Hoping the rest of it's still here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Marc Posted August 11, 2020 Administrator Share Posted August 11, 2020 My understanding @eman, is that the turntable that was donated to you by us and Convoy, was used in a hifi show demonstration, and then re-packed. If something is missing, by all means reach out to me and I will get it sorted for you. I think it was mentioned there would be no cartridge before you received it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes , have just recently got a home amid other various new health issues so the cartridge could well have been mentioned and I forgot that amid all my chaos. Very happy to have this thanks, it's a new style of thing for me and I'm taking it very carefully. I have a brand new Denon dl 110 which I can put on. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eman Posted August 28, 2020 Share Posted August 28, 2020 I now have this running and it sounds very good. Only odd thing is the counterweight is droopy. Not sure if there's supposed to be an internal part that's missing or something. It didn't really 'screw on' convincingly. Do I need to source another one from somewhere ? @Marc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Marc Posted August 28, 2020 Administrator Share Posted August 28, 2020 It looks broken Stay tuned, I'll see if I can get some help for you on Monday. (some additional pics PM'd to me would likely help) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
