Collection FAQs
Which hi-fi accessories are included in this collection?
The current collection focuses on the Dizzy Resonance Platform, a solid base for placing a turntable on record furniture. The range may change, so use the collection page to check which LP accessories are currently available.
What does a turntable resonance platform do?
It creates a separate, rigid surface between the turntable and the record cabinet or audio furniture. The aim is to reduce vibration reaching the stylus through floors, shelves or nearby speakers.
When is an isolation platform useful?
It can be helpful when footfall, flexible floors, resonant furniture or speakers cause feedback or skipping. It does not replace correct turntable setup, but it can improve the mechanical conditions around the deck.
View more questions Hide questions
How do I choose the right platform size?
Measure the turntable’s feet and full plinth rather than only the platter. The Dizzy platform measures about 47 × 37 cm, so the deck should sit fully within that surface with room for cables and dust-cover movement.
Will a resonance platform solve every playback problem?
No. Skipping or noise can also come from a damaged record, dirty stylus, incorrect tracking setup, an uneven surface or speakers positioned too close. Treat the platform as one part of a stable turntable installation.
How should a turntable platform be levelled?
Place it on a firm surface, adjust its supports carefully and check the turntable itself with a level. Recheck after moving the record cabinet or changing the platform position.
Can an isolation platform sit on top of a record cabinet?
Yes, provided the cabinet top is rigid, level and strong enough for the platform and turntable together. Keep it clear of cabinet doors, cable pressure and speakers that transmit vibration into the same furniture.
Which materials and finishes are available for the Dizzy platform?
The platform is made from solid ash, mahogany, oak or cherry and uses four spikes. Spike finishes include brass-coloured, stainless-steel-coloured and black options, allowing it to coordinate with different LP furniture.
