All great thoughts on this universal challenge we often have in our listening rooms. I am on wood floors and conventional foundations so when my 20lb dog would walk through the house I could feel each step in my listening position.....crazy! I moved to a wall shelf but now have the same issue polkalover mentions. When I lower the arm, sometimes I get an immediate bass tone from the speakers. I didn't think of applying downward pressure, but instead applied slight upward pressure like I was going to pick up my turntable but didn't actually lift off the shelf. It immediately stops the rumble/tone. There hasn't been much comment here on the Delos or any of their Orea feet. These are somewhat reasonable in price. I am looking at either 3 of the Bronze feet or the Delos 1.75in thick platform. This is $150 vs $400. I will call tomorrow and see how these feet of the platform compare to the Orea. This isn't explained in the technical details, but I would imagine it is the same design. I may order both and simply keep my preference. The farther I go with improving my system the more weaknesses are revealed. It is so much fun and challenging....god I love this hobby!!!
Turntable isolation platforms
Need some reco's on turntable isolation platforms. Currently I'm considering the isoacoustics delos. This is another step in the battle to reduce acoustic feedback (see previous posts of mine). I currently have TT on a Pangea audio rack with a rumble filter with iso feet but want to remove rumble filter and use XLR input and not RCA. All ideas are welcome for a solid platform. GO!
