Agreed. Use of 3 pads and only partial placement (e.g., 1/3 - 1/4) of a pad under the equipment will help move things in the right direction when used with gear that isn’t super heavy. Even so, the optimum load for 3 pads each placed only 1/3 of the way under a piece would be 200#.
Vibration Isolation
I came across these the other day and for the price I couldn't pass up trying them. I've spent as much as $75 each for vibration isolation pucks and seen pucks going as high as $900 each. I have to say that these $0.62 wonders work as well as anything I've tried and much better than the cork ones I've seen advertised for $6-$7 each. Even though my VPI turntable has factory cones and feet I did notice an improvement in smoothness and clarity. Too few bargains in high end audio not to share. I now have these under my monoblock amps, turntable and turntable motor. Hope this helps someone looking for an inexpensive way to dampen vibration.
