The lid closed ?


I was just wonder, for all of us audio guys who have a turntable with a plastic lid attached, does it make sense to totally remove it. All the super hi end tables do not have a plastic lid. Also if the cartridge is that sensitive to the room, the table, the motor, the speakers; being to close. Is it that sensitive to having the lid closed and picking up on the echo/ chamber created by having the lid closed.

Any thoughts?? I am inclined to remove mine

Off in use, on when not. What I have done, is remove the hinges from the lid/table and place four (one on each corner) rubber 1'square 1/4 inch high 'feet'you can get at any hardware store in the section for furniture pads, feet, etc. I put them so that the lid is placed down just out side of them and prevents horizontal movement when not in use. FWIW.
