The turntable itself sits on a custom to the unit plinth, which in turn rests on a second isolation plinth fitted with acoustic feet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA solid-wood and acrylic cover protects the turntable when not in use. The cover features\u003cstrong\u003e \u003c\/strong\u003ecastle joints at the corners, integrated handles, and built-in clearance for the cables at the back. When removed, it can be placed on a custom wall-mounted shelf above the turntable — doubling as a place to set the cover while changing records and a way to display the album artwork while listening.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe speakers sit on custom Padauk and maple stands, designed to resemble brick columns. The stands are filled with sand for additional mass and vibration damping, helping keep unwanted resonance out of the system.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt the centre is a Padauk equipment stand built to display and support the amplifiers and music streamer, with an acoustic panel and matching wall shelf above.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlmost everything in the room, with the exception of the Sapele cabinet, is made from Padauk. Some pieces were designed specifically around my friend's equipment and ideas; others started as Maughan Made designs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eA collection of furniture, acoustic treatment and audio accessories built around one very good reason: listening to music.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Maughan Made","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48328689123534,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0561\/0317\/4350\/files\/Wendell_sGear1.jpg?v=1788710887","url":"https:\/\/maughanmade.com\/products\/custom-audiophile-system","provider":"Maughan Made","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
