Feedback through turntable


My system consists of a McIntosh C2300 preamp, MC452 amp, MCD500 SACD player, VPI Aries 3D with Ortofon Cadenza MC cartridge, Manley ChinookSE phono stage, PS Audio P5, Sonus faber Cremona Auditor M speakers and REL B1 Sub bass system.  My issue is with turntable use only; SACD has no issues.  On my pre when volume is +55 (peak at 45watts) I start to get feedback through the turntable - a sort of low freq sound, back off volume and it goes away.  My Auditor M speaker is about 3 ft away and in front of turntable.  I do have a rumble filter (KAB) installed between preamp and phonostage to help with sub woofer pumping.  Due to room layout I cannot rearrange the setup/move turntable.  My turntable is on a 2.5" block of wood and that sits on 4 isolation blocks via spiked feet.  Any thoughts how I can eliminate this problem?  Harry Weisfeld with VPI states he has 4 15" woofers (JBL Everest) near his Prime Signature setup with no issues at all.  Why am I having this problem and how can I eliminate it?  Thank you in advance for all feedback.

Geoff- I will say that I'd try little bowls if there was a believable explanation for how they work and what they do.. I'm not a total reductionist, so I don't shoot things down if they aren't ideas in the mainstream, but my mind does need something to go on, so I can figure out how to implement. Though I suppose it would be pointless since I can't imagine decorating my house with copper bowls.. My lovely wife let's me do what I want with the music room, but she wants input on the rest of the house
Todd, post this over on the tiny bowl thread and I'll consider answering.

cheers,

Marble is awful for a VPI.....it rings like a bell. DO try Bearpaws as I mentioned above. Roller bearings are no good for VPI...it must be anchored to the center of the Earth. Anything that allows motion doesn’t work. ..springs, Gingko balls, etc.

I have isolated many VPI turntables on my spring systems, including the new very heavy VPI Flagship turntable (on my new Super Stiff Springs), with great success. By the way, marble as the base under the component on a spring based iso system doesn’t ring. Anyone care to guess why not? The earth is not a stable platform, it is a springy one.
