Pioneer Vintage Turntable Replacement Feet with Sorbothane PL-518 PL-540 PL-560

Description: ITEM DESCRIPTION Get your vintage Pioneer turntable off its belly and back on its feet with these original equipment inspired replicas! Designed to look like the original feet. However, instead of outdated rubber and springs for isolation, these replicas are designed with Sorbothane Hemispheres! A little background... I'm a vintage electronics guy and personally own a Pioneer PL-518 along with other Pioneer gear like the SA-8500 II (integrated amp), the SG-9500 (equalizer) and the RT-707 (reel to reel tape deck). The problem with my PL-518 was that the rubber support for the feet had rotted out a long time ago (couldn't even find the springs) and being tired of my low riding turntable (not to mentioned the scratches on my table due to the protruding screws on the bottom of the pan) I ordered replacement feet. I was underwhelmed. They didn't match the style or elevate the turntable to the same height as the originals and just didn't seem to have that 'wow' factor. So, I designed my own. I still had the original feet and some of the original rubber support cylinders so I put them together, measured the dimensions and drew up a 3D model. After weeks of prototyping with my 3D printer, experimenting with different filament and different configurations of Sorbothane I finally got to a version thats on my turntable today and I couldn't be happier! I thought I couldn't be the only one who can use these so I went into production and am offering for sale to the world! My first production run is in all black but I'm considering other colors. Please let me know if you have any suggestions. MADE IN THE USA These are design and manufactured in Largo, Florida using 3D printing technology and PLA (Polylactic Acid) material which has outstanding material properties and is derived from renewable resources. I've used the world renowned Sorbothane Hemispheres for vibration isolation made in Kent, Ohio. Note that a vertical seem is created on each layer of all 3D printed cylinders. I've chosen to align them all in one location to provide the smoothest finish. I simply turned the feet on my turntable and pointed the seem toward the back so its not visible. COMPATABILITIY Based on my research these feet would be a direct replica replacement for the following Pioneer turntable models: PL-518PL-540PL-560 They'll likely work for other turntable manufacturers and models as well. See photos for dimensions to determine compatibility. If you have any questions or need a custom configuration, please ask!
