Just in case it’s not obvious the bottom of the TT would need to be perfectly flat and uniform to be able to accommodate the springs. Otherwise, as the other dude observed, you will need a board between the TT and the springs. One more thing, it’s probably best to remove the feet from the turntable if you use a board between the TT and the springs since it’s not a good idea to have two springy systems in series. If it were me I'd interface the TT to the board with cones, say DH Cones.

cheers

As opposed to leaving the original feet to platform then your springs ? I think the springs would also be interesting under my sub . Again will the carpet and padding pose a problem for the springs?  My sub is 38lbs
