Yes, got 'em from Mapleshade Records. They're air-dried 4" 18 pound Maple platforms I have from my previous system.

My APC is my power conditioner for music server and DAC. To the lower left is the Shindo Mr.T power conditioner for Shindo pre-amp, amp and TT because these components don't have ground connectors and the other two gears do.

Oh Silent One I am so jealous.  A while back I thought we were on somewhat level playing ground but I see now that I'm way outclassed here.  At least I can say we have similar tastes in music from what I remember.

You got some good music inside the room...

If you read the manual - yes I know it is in Japanese - you will discover that YOU are required to make tea for your Shindos!

You have no idea. 

 The amount of patience I had to exercise since January and not being able to hear my rig, could fuel the Space Shuttle. It's been a very long non-audio year. 

I'm still waiting to see how you address the monster Sansui resting place....................

"The gains in startling transparency, natural growling bass, and most importantly; musical information, is simply outstanding."
 
"The improvement in sound is shocking. Deeper, tighter bass, more detail, warmer and smoother on the top end."
 
"Transients were sharper and cleaner with no change in the tonal balance. The dynamic range also seemed greater with the quieter passages being more quiet. Low level resolution and vocal nuances were also more noticeable."
