Rerurn to Romy the Cat's Site

Hi Wojtek,

I've only seen/heard an SP25 once and I wasn't able to judge how good it was as the rest of the equipment was unfamiliar to me. There is some information about the various Technics DD turntables here.

As I understand it the SP25 was half the price of the SP10 so I imagine some compromises were made in it's design/manufacture.  For some reason the Obsidian plinths are very desirable and valuable so remember that if you ever sell it. The plinth may be worth more than the SP25! I don't actually think it works very well.

I also found that the sound of the SP10 was affected by using the supplied rubber mat. I took it off and use a mat made of 10mm polycarbonate sheet which sounds much better in my system.
I use the Stirling Broadcast plinth.  www.stirlingbroadcast.net

I like the SP-10 because it's perhaps the only turntable I've heard which allows you to forget that you are listening to a rotating vinyl record. It also does not seem to add or subtract anything.

I don't think I could or would return to a belt driven TT now.

best regards,

Guy
