Dupont Corian for Isolation

When asked for TT shelf recommendations, Mike at VPI suggested that I place my turntable on top of a Corian shelf, the shelf then resting upon a flat sheet of bubble wrap (packing material). I haven't tried this yet, but I might. My present isolation base setup is "a bit" more elaborate & expensive than that, but it's worth a try esp. considering the simplicity & low cost.

I have Corian in my system. My Uncle, who does remodeling, so my speaker basses and me if I wanted him to make me speaker stands (with spikes) for my Maggy IIA'a and IIB's. I said sure, as long as they were black, and not only do they look great but are vibration free. Did you ever wonder what Kitchen remodelers do with those sink cut-outs?? Ask them and you might get them pretty cheap. My next trial is to use them with the bubble pack under my CDP.

Which bubble pack - the big or small bubbles?

Jp: Mike didn't say which bubble size to use & I didn't think to ask. It might not make much difference; try them both if you're so inclined & please report back if you preferred one. vs. the other.

Bob,

Seeing you on several threads. I'm not moved yet and it will be some time before I do the new setup. I'll start with the small bubble stuff as it will look better.
