Just to alert those who might be interested, we have put up some of the new custom OMA plinths on this page over at the Products section of the OMA website-
http://www.oswaldsmillaudio.com/Products/plinths-Others.htmlOne is a takeoff on the Teres, though it bears no resemblance to any Teres I know of. The client came to us and worked with me to achieve what he wanted, which involved being able to mount his Kuzma Airline arm, as well as being able to experiment with other motors besides the Teres Maxon, and even being able to use a Technics SP 10 with a changeout of one piece of slate. I think it came out very well, visually. Waiting for a report on the sonics.
The other deck is just so incredibly cool looking, I don't even care how it sounds, though I am sure it will be super, as it was made by Fairchild, which you could call the US Neumann, with an enormous 16" damped platter that weighs nearly 30 pounds, an excellent, huge bearing, and an equally huge motor. Likewise, this deck's owner still has not weighed in with a report, but I am sure he will.
A Platine Verdier in slate will be next- it's actually finished but I had no time to assemble before leaving for the holidays. And there is also my own Commonwealth, which now has a slate plinth but still needs a power supply for the 50hz motor. The new Technics SP10 system will be ready to roll out in late January.
