Post Subject: Snubbers and motorsPosted by N-set on: 2/10/2012

Thanks for your thoughts Paul. The subject of the snubber has already been quite discussed.
IIRC Romy has turned the whole idea down as uncessary in his context. I am afraid that
a snubber may be a sonic move rather than only "engeneering". I'll first try to learn my 834 as it is,
and only then try to experiment with snubbers a la Jim Hagerman from Hagtech--fighting the specific
resonance and not blindly shooting "just in case".

Motor: I have to check where it is connected in my EMT and if it's possible to eventually ground motor elsewhere.
Right now it's like you say: whole TT is connected to the signal chassis bolt, where also signal ground (Cu plate)
comes via a GND lift switch.

Cheers,
N-set
