Tonearm Mounting Plate
For high-end turntables the ability to mount different
tonearms is very important. However, unless some for of adapting
plate is used there is no way to accomplish this without making
major modifications to the turntable or plinth.
The plate shown is made of 5 mm opaque white acrylic
(Lucite, Perspex or Plexiglass) to a very high degree of accuracy.
In addition to the cutout for the tonearm base, there are two scales
etched into the plastic and marked in black. These guides assist
in the setup alignment ensuring easy adjustment and repeatability.
We are also in the process of producing turntable
plinths made up of alternate layers of acrylic and plywood for a
custom turntable design. The final product will allow a number of
easy modifications for motors, bearings and arms. It is intended
to be relatively high end whilst being relatively economical.
