Suspensions on turntable...really effective?

Been wondering about this, so did some research, but was surprised I couldn't find any that categorically says that turntable suspensions really isolate/substantially reduce outside vibrations, resonances, etc.

Any reference out there you can point out?

i prefer suspended turntables they always bring better bass vs. toed in.

For the serious, the only solution is an electron microscope platform, typically goes for $10,000.  A friend once had one, it was very effective. Are you serious?

Go to the Minus K website for some real good info on isolation. You can get one of their platforms for around $2500.

Only ones I ever heard that really made a difference were magnetic suspension , And I 've owned  four Thorens and a Linn LP-12 .
