Sorry Shane,

It's making its debut at the Bristol show next week. I don't mind describing it a little, but if you want to see it you'll have to come to the show.

Like everything I design it's a no-compromise item. I'm not interested in make do's, cost cutting etc. I build what I believe in, and hopefully the best out there. If not I'll improve it or scrap it.

It consists of solid Stainless Steel legs spiked for each section/layer. Has 3 layers of 30mm slate each weighing in at 20Kg and as a whole it totals aprox 80Kg.

An awful lot of thought has gone into the design. Like the plinths I wanted simple lines with total functionality in regards to isolation and performance.

I will set-up my turntable on it this evening, well another one that is, so I can compare to another leading equipment stand I'm using at the moment.

After the show I'll be happy to share the concept ideas and reasoning's behind the design.

It does look slick though, I say that for it.
Regards
Darren

Don't worry, I'm not about to try and make a copy!

I was hoping to combine the show with a 1-2-1 with my area manager in Bristol, but they wouldn't change it to Friday from Monday, and I can't do Bristol twice in one week . Guess I'll just have to wait for pics on your website.

Hi Hardy,

You'll be very welcome at the show as will anyone else who can make it. Don't overlook the thread on this in the 'News' section of this forum. On Sunday or Monday I'll be posting some more detail on the lunch venue withy easy directions etc. If you're coming, look forward to seeing you then.

Best wishes,

Greg
