Post Subject: Platter Mass, How much is enough?Posted by guy sergeant on: 2/27/2008
There was a Japanese company called Melco who did some experimentation with platter mass back in the 70's.  I seem to recall that they felt 30Kg was where it stopped making a difference.  The greek ACA president with his flywheel assistance feels its alot more.

Personally, I feel DD done properly is an adequate and more elegant solution. The fact that it was accurate enough to cut the records we listen to also suggests this to be the case.
