Isolation Devices: Any Good Ones?

I'm considering some Isolation devices to place under my Esoteric X-05 CD player. I have actualy tried Stillpoins Ultra SS ($675 for 3) and they did make a difference. I'm interested to hear from those of you who have tried others like Wave Kinetics ($700 for 4), KWO Super Heated Metal Foam Pedestals ($415 for 3), Nordost Sort Kones ($260 for 4) or any others that markedly helped vibration control. Thanks!

I use fish bowls filled with liquid mercury. It takes a while to break in but when it does you loose all sense of connection with anything at all related to the transmission of musical harmony. Tom

Get ready for heavy sushi listening that could also report weather temp ....

You can smother in sand and so are the affects with it's use in audio. Of course the same can be said and heard with MDF and all its glue glory. Tom

I have a local guy that sells isolation footers there are made from silicone and they are quite impressive
I've tried many high priced footers from the likes of Rollerballs symposium products and recently still points
These in my sytem were the clear winner
I now have them under all my equipment and have some great results
