Turntable in cabinet

Rick, what a great solution! Love it. I wish I had a cabinet big enuf to try that. :-)

Riley804, FWIW, I'm not convinced that you have really isolated floor borne vibrations, or air born vibrations for that matter, by using metals and woods in any configuration which IMHO probably do not damp the vibrations you are trying to to prevent from reaching your TT.

Personally, in your situation, I would have kept it simple by placing some sorbothane type of rubbery product on the cabinet shelf and a piece of a soft wood on them to make a platform for your TT. To minimize the cabinets interior reflecting surfaces I would get some moderately dense but thin foam and line all of the surfaces about and above the TT.

FWIW.

All,

Thanks for the prompt and thoughtful responses. Glad to hear that others have successfully placed the TT in a cabinet. I'll experiment with your suggestions.

Thanks again!

Rick

I'd try the dynamat. It really works..
be careful of sitting your table on softy things, it's gonna sog things up. As long as you have no howl I'd leave that part of the equation alone.

I have all my equipment in a cabinet. I replaced all the cheap MDF shelves with thick Maple shelves and lined the cabinet including the bottom of the shelves with self stick damping material that I bought from Parts Express. It seems to do the job. Don
