Amongst all the expensive turntables around which are likely to skip with footsteps on a house with wood flooring.. Once own a basis table and was skip free even with jumping on hardwood floor How do you fixed it other than a wall shelf...
Even 11 years after this thread was kaput, yes, a wall shelf (e.g., Target) does work decently well even in "wooden houses". The trick is to select a weight-bearing wall for mounting. Most wooden houses built in the last 40-50 years in the US have steel I-beams internally that stabilize the main structural elements.
I have a Sound Anchors equipment stand that I had built for my preamp and turntable, both on an anti-vibration platform.
But that did not stop problems with foot falls on a hardwood floor (although it did help the sound otherwise- better bass and smoother sound at high volumes). Foot falls were solved by installing a set of Aurios Pro bearings beneath the equipment stand. Aurios is gone now, but there are other bearing systems that would do the job nicely.
