I'd go after market subchassis - I went with the Sole; it was the best upgrade I have made to my 70s LP12 sound wise, and does not cost a huge amount comparatively speaking.

Maybe you can PM Andrew and see if he's willing to sell his Ittok as he's about to get an Aro.
Actually Theaudiofiles has an Ittok waiting for me. Shame its not an VIII or an Ekos. (Here I am coveting already).
So what about these Troikas then? Why? Is there no alternative?
Of course there are alternatives, here is one

I have both of these and the 401 is better IMO

That's quite a nice wall shelf for your 'lesser' turntable, Alan. I'm actually looking for one to get the deck away from my toddler. Is it easy to fit securely?
Yes its easy to fit as long as you have a good soid wall to fix it to, its just 4 meaty wall plugs
The wall shelf is from custom design and is excellent quality.

This was an upgrade in itself for me as my rack was very sensitive to footfall.
