Turntable isolation platform Recommendations?

Does the Clearaudio Ovation contain its own integral suspension system, of any kind?

Why do you need isolation platform? Isolation from what? 

Hi-Fi rack or some nice and heavy wooden furniture is more than enough for a good turntable.


People are crazy about springs and all that BS.

If you have some problems with bass feedback or your needle skip then tell about it. If you don’t have any problem you don’t need isolation platform.

That table is close to 30lbs. I would try Pods first. That is an expensive table but those cone footers, you could actually put one Pod under each one. It will probably be better however to bypass the whole thing and put the Pods directly under the turntable base. Probably the best will be if you can remove the CA feet and replace them with Pods. Probably won't want to mess with that though I am betting. Even though it probably will be the best or certainly the most cost-effective solution. 

I would call John Hannant at Townshend. He helped me with mine. Vibration control with turntables almost always comes down to the details of each table and situation. John has a lot of experience with that, which is probably how he was able to help me so much.

No doubt in my mind that the Critical Mass is good. I do want to check out the HRS to hear how it performs in my room. I am not a impulse buyer as I have learned from the past. Just needed some options on some of the popular cutting edge platforms. I do appreciate all of your input on this matter. And a special thanks to Millercarbon on the record clamp. I did end up machining my own record clamp. With washer and threaded spindle.

HRS under my Bardo w Triplaner and Delos. As you might be aware the Brinkmann tables use a unique spindle spacer clamp system.
