While my background is in engineering, I am not a metallurgist either. But I do know that 316L is considered an non-magnetic material (see https://greenwoodmagnetics.com/resource/what-is-the-difference-between-304-and-316-stainless-steel/). But even ...

Thanks for detailed answer. I'll go for 316L. So I would not worry about magnet issue, especially because also I use CU-180 or Audio Technica AT-666EX mat (air suction type).
As my taste is closer to steel I have plan to make also the 316L version...

That is a whole another subject all together. I truly have no strong opinion on the subject but I do hear a lot of talking noise about the “quality” of motors for heavy belt driver turntables. My idea is that with a sufficiently heavy platter and pro...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]Hm, I took the anti-RIAA signal converted and run CD player into the phonostage. The RIAA curve was fine and the effect of the HF volume and frequency-depended quantization did not expose itself. So, it looks like the p...

[quote user="Serge"] It's silly because the minuses outweight the pluses. In order to suspend the heavy disc constant magnetic field should be strong. This field will easily travel through the platter, since the platter is by definition non-magne...
