10 times the daily recommended dosage of vitamin c keeps the doctor away, 1000mg for men, up to 1500mg for blow inhalers.
(the g/f did some long term malpractice/experimentation/research* on that. *cross those inapplicable at your own judgement)

XA160.42 sounds stupid, but the number of power devices in each model can be divided by 8.
Personally I think it's because 8 looks like a stack of boobies (and 4 times 2 also makes 8).
XA160.8 iz a XA161 minus 0.2
There iz enough audio porn in those photo's to keep me happy for the next year!!!!

It's OK, I would also prefer to pay with 6 feet and 500 something (inches).
Your link, ZM, shows tasteful cases and heatsinks and with your experience of Papa's work, you just KNOW that they are good..........I've nothing against 'brand loyalty' by the way,
But some of the speakers really do look gross....have to admit that the Wilson Sashas look as though a real designer attended - to the outside at least.
But what turned me on was the (nearly) all singing SP-10 (or 15?) TT. [Brand loyalty I suppose!] But I can never understand why modifiers of these do not take the electronics outboard - doing away with that awful top-plate - and mount the motor alone in a decent plinth. That elderly Japanese guy (Kinyata?) did this many moons ago.....and I am doing the same having ousted the electronics to outboard some 12 years or more ago.
[Vantage Audio have my motor + PS for service and repair and I hope to have it back soon - they are excellent but they are very slow!]

]Isnt it direct driven? How does one mount a direct mounted motor on separat plinth?
Yes...DD. The DD motor unit is mounted to the top-plate which you see on any normal SP-10.
The pic for the PAss display showed what I Believe is on of Mr Porter's treated plinths. The other approach is similar to Mitch Cotter's approach as shown in the second pic. His was very utilitarian with little desire to 'make it look good'; it was also suspended.
Take Cotter's idea and sink the motor down within the plinth and you get a better looking design.
The electronics are normally contained within the underside of the top-plate whereas I have mine in a separate cabinet linked by a multicore cable. Other than the motor there are no electronics within the plinth.
EDIT:
Looking at the cotter pic it seems from the various switches at the front that he has kept the electronics inside the plinth. Also, the raw power supply was always in a separate off-plinth case. What I have in mind is more like Pic 3

Looks like it's being used as a CD holder - with yet another remote control for the collection......

Funny how a daily gram of C has such a different meaning at this age.
