Isolation Platform - to be or not to be for CDP?

Right now, I am restricted to a fairly sturdy all wood cabinet to house my equipment. I was considering a custom mapleshade 2" platform to be supported by metal inserts or dowels to go under my CDP. Is this a worthwhile (~$200) investment given the type of cabinet. Eventually I will go to a better rack but that is probably at least several months out on the horizon. Any advice, as always, is greatly appreciated.

I just noticed, "so sure of yourself!" Thanks, I wish it were true. The greatest fear is moving one step forward and two backward.

Tbg - If the Lindemann's special "damping feet" were used in your comparison, I can see where the performance of Nimbus might possibly have suffered, as Nimbus requires very high stiffness/hardness type feet for best results. There a quite a few other things regarding set up for best results, many not too obvious. (Annoying, I know.)

Hey Y'all,

Audiopoints!!! I have them or Sistrum stands under everything in my system, and they are the best I've tried. Then again, I've only tried a couple of things but the Audiopoints have stopped me from needing to look any further........John

Norm, instead of thanking me I suggest you might apologize to Geoff Kait for the unfounded remark about his product.

I obviously did not know Geoff made the unit, and as he suggests, it may be the particular player that my experience is with.
