SP10 Mk 2 and 3 also came with obsidian plinth from the factory. I've seen, but not heard, a Mk 2 with obsidian plinth. It had an SME 3009 arm mounted.Technics SP10 is one of the best machines made. It's build quality is legendary and the torque on the platter is unparalleled. The only downside is it is just a platter unit and not a package like an EMT, which has a plinth, tonearm, phono preamp all built-in.
