vibration control - cd player

Hi all-

I've got a new Hegel Viking cd player here which is quite nice.  At the moment, it's sitting inside an Ikea cabinet.  The feet have a sort of small isonodes rubber piece. Is that sufficient?  Do I eventually want to invest in something like a Harmonic Resolutions platform?  Or the little EVP squares?  Or something else?  (A real audio stand is not an option in my very small room.)

Thanks for any advice.

Margot

My transport and dac sit on double-stacks of symposium rollerblocks and ultra platforms makes a very noticeable difference in performance. Got really good deals on the used market.

Many years ago I had sorbothane. Moved up to vibrapods. No noticeable improvement with either (but that most probably was my system at the time).

Ended up with Black Ravioli Pads. What a change. Even more so with the Black Ravioli Big Pads. They are based in Scotland.

Also recommend the Stack Audio Auva EQ. Bought a set of those last year.

Has anyone ever used small rubber inner tubes that are used in children’s bikes. I use them under all my components that are not super heavy. They were recommended by the hifi shop where I purchased my gear over twenty years ago.

I too use the vibrapods with cones on my cyrus cdt. Economical solution to vibration/Isolation, if in fact a problem even existed.
