bdp, I appreciate your research and your arguments for one way or another. Having said that, they (are) just that, since, and correct me if I'm wrong, you have not tried any of these items in your system?

I've always found that no matter how much science backs up one theory or how much a manufacturer backs up their own theory/product, it really doesn't matter until you try it out for yourself in your own system/environment. Then you can confidently report on how it sounds in your specific system.
foq , has some fairly new "ball-in-cup" devices made out of different materials that should be well worth checking out. Pricey but very effective from what I've been told.

I like mixing and matching. Roller bearing or ball in cup devices with springs or the new bio micro g. Better isolation in more directions of motion. Rock and roll. Twist and shout.
geoffkait,

How do you correlate your remarks you made in the "TT Isolation" thread on 03/07/2016, and the remark above? Thanks.

Good catch. One should not isolate in the twist direction for TT.
