Nick,
The Garrard 401 is a beauty. Look forward to reading more about it after your remodel is complete.

Think it'd be a Clearaudio Satisfy.

Yes- very happy with the plinth quality for the price- it was very securely packed as well, with fast delivery time to the other end of the planet.

CAVEAT: The finish does not appear to be as high quality as the Artisan Fidelity plinths, which in piano black, do look very close in design & finish. https://www.artisanfidelity.com/new-...rd-401-classic.

Given the probable price differential (Im sure that if Artisan Fidelity sold its plinths as separate items they would be very expensive), Im very happy with the DASAcoustics plinth!

Cheers
Nick
