Only on the Goldring plinth. Was there another? And did it make a lot
of difference.


At the time, no, only the hollow wooden box they seemed to like putting
them in. A lot of folk now have taken them and put them in high mass
plinths with some success. I am not sure mine is that quiet an example.

An awful lot better than poor old Lordy's deck, however bad it may be.
Still a fair amount of rumble going on there, though.


Interestingly while making that sample, I noticed a strange boing in
between tracks. It seems to be on the recording, as its there every time
I play it. Any ideas anyone?

That boing is almost certainly a small coil spring doing its thing
somewhere underneath. It probably once had a damping sleeve round it
that has since fallen off, rotted away or whatever.
