Would love it, but my tt can't support it. My lp sits on Delrin points that in effect hold the lp off the platter, and allow the lp to "breathe" as the stylus tracks the grooves. Abs no shackling of the vinyl. And boy, does it show.
More mooks, awesome tweaks

Interesting approach and gutted for you at the same time
I'm not too gutted, avoiding the need the spend £5k plus on Unobtanium.
My apologies, I thought they were beyond hard to get. I'm sure I saw a stupid price on one of the German websites.
At that price, I'm sure Bill won't resist for long.

Bruce, the naysayers know more than anything to stay away from this one. Even Blizzard won't put his rational helmet on and expect it to not get severely dented.
I've never done the whole clamp thing, and now having a tt where a clamp cannot be used, I'm out of this argument.
Just curious as to what the SM clamp is doing. Is it dealing w/damping vibes from the vinyl itself, or working at a more holistic level re vibrations from the whole analog rig? Or is it like having the equivalent of a Diamond Resonator for the lp itself?

Sadly vibration doesn't work like that, however you can and should design your TT so that vibration isnt stored .

For example ,you can't eliminate vibration from a Cd player, it is always going to vibrate, but you make sure that the housing doesn't store that vibration and allow it to increase .
Be718 is an expert, he posts on the measurement thread, if you have any vibration related questions he is the man to ask.

Keith, I think you'll find a few of us at least aren't binary in our thinking. We can get a lot from measurements, and a lot from listening. We don't have to pick just one way to make a decision.

I am sorry Marc damn science comes along and shatters another dream.
Keith.
Keith, Mooks sell like hotcakes, so I think the Mook guys are living the dream. Nothing shattered from their POV.
Science hasn't replaced religion or politics yet, so audio has a little while yet before the grey clipboard bearers like y'self
tell us "what's best".Happy New Year to you Keith.
Hi Spaz,
Yes - it is one of the first places for application of discs - they recommend triangular configuration on top of each speaker.
Indeed. I actually preferred not to have the triangular config on each speaker instead opting for 1 disc on each of the three cabinets at the rear.
Spaz - you should have a play with Mooks but be warned that you might want to spend
Oh sorry - I misinterpreted you. Yes - if you had the funds to buy a giant resonator and stick it on each speaker (or the lp clamp), I reckon you would definitely hear the influence. Greg Baron has what looks like 2 giants screwed together as a massive resonator on his monoblocks so you could try that contraption on top.
