Great job! This is definitely the cleanest looking example I’ve seen. Someone else already asked about the aluminum strip you used to make the ring, and you provided a link. I clicked on it, but the info is in German - what type of product is it/what is sold for? Thanks!
Looks very nice. How does it look without a record on it ? I’ve had the same idea and I experimented a bit but the LED controller produces a high frequency to light and dim the LEDs and this signal was induced into the cartridge and/or wiring in the tone arm and I could clearly hear the noise. So I ditched the idea as I would never give up sound quality for a visual effect.....Don’t you have that issue ?
Sorry can't show a picture without record on it because I have sold this TT a while ago. I had no probs with controller frequencies. Maybe because the controller was about 1 meter away from the cartridge and it was behind the bookshelf. Therefore it was shielded by the wood of the furniture. I agree that sound quality is more important than the visual. Maybe you have used a cheap controller ? In the meantime I have added LED visuals to 3 different turntables and never noticed any noise degradation / variation.

Steven Espaniola Actually it should also work without the alu-strip. Just glue some feet directly to the LED strip and tape it to the turntable...Same result but cheaper an easier.
Super, gefällt mir sehr gut! Warum die LED nach außen und nicht nach innen gerichtet? Vielleicht wäre das Licht gleichmäßiger, weil indirekt Wow, I like it very much! Why do the LEDs face outwards and not inwards? Maybe the light would be more even, because indirectly
No, not in this case. Maybe it depends on the quality of the LED strip and the PSU. Also I have separated the LED PSU from the power supplies of the the audio equipment. I did not notice any hum.
Nice solution bro. Shared this on my Twitter, I'll be doing this to mine. I Also need the clear platter. check me out @vinyl72rpm if you have a chance.
Nice solution a lot better than carving a ditch in your TT! (That vid made me freak out)
That vid of the dude routing a hole in his player made me sick! ha
Class job!!!!.....im making one tomorrow. ..cheers! !
Nicely done, wish that could work for my U-Turn but the platter is different.

It is just a common aluminum rail from the hardware store. In principle, any bendable strip of any kind can be used.
Where did you get that entertainment center ?

Where did you buy the aluminum strip from?

Does it create an audible hum?
No, not in this case. Maybe it depends on the quality of the LED strip and the PSU. Also I have separated the LED PSU from the power supplies of the the audio equipment. I did not notice any hum.
I'm also wondering where you buy the strip from?
Stan Vu ...please see my reply to Steven.
Great thanks! Also, where did you get the plinth decal?
...it's not a decal...it's the "Wave by Parov Stelar limited edition" turntable: www.project-audio.com/main.php?prod=ps01-wave&cat=default&lang=en
... Ok yeah I'm doing this
