Turntable suggestions for a shaky wooden floor


I'm using a Rega RP1 and had a significant rumble with even the softest volumes.  I used a cutting board with Sorbothane hemispheric feet and now can listen to music at a pleasant listening level.  

I'd like to step up to a nicer turntable but I've heard some are much better with rumble than others.  I would like to spend $750-1500 for the TT and cartridge.

So far I'm thinking of getting a Technics SL-1200MK7.  Any suggestions on something better or more stable?

Thanks for your time

mount it on the wall   use brackets or secure your shelfl....your issue will be gone

Thank you for the great suggestions. All your advice sounds great. I’m definitely going to get a Delos block. The room has a forty foot ceiling that slopes down so hanging things is not an option. I don’t even have ladder that would reach. It’s really a horrible room for listening but it’s the best I can do.

I do need to get another turntable however. My daughter, who has a larger vinyl collection than me, needs a new table.  Hers gave up the ghost, so I "have" to get one.

vonhelholtz I can’t agree with you more on the digital front. I have a Bluesound Vault 2i with all my CDs on it and I stream Tidal with it through a Schiit DAC. But - I really enjoy the aesthetics and ritual of spinning vinyl. Who doesn’t love listening to crackle, pops and distortion? I even use a tube amp so...

 

+1 for stringreen's suggestion. I had a skipping problem, even though the TT was sitting on a massive rack. Wall mounting solved all of that.

I would love to Wall mount it.

This is a very unique room. It’s a large 25 foot by 15 foot area with floor to ceiling windows on 2 of the sides. The other side is a fireplace in a solid concrete wall. The other "wall" is actually a long low cabinet separating the room from a dining room. There is no wall actually but a 3 foot high cabinet from which you can see both rooms. Drilling into that cabinet is a not an option.
