Help with spring replacement Sota Turntable

http://www.sotaturntables.com
Kirk or Donna can answer any questions for you. Where did you get the replacement springs?

I purchased from Sota and spoke to Donna today. Kirk was out. Donna would not be able to provide an answer until next week. I was just curious and hoping to start replacing the springs this weekend. Thanks for the repsonse.

I wish I could have been more helpful. I am on my third Sota table but have never replaced springs on my own. I would GUESS that the pads should be inserted in the new springs since they probably prevent the suspension from pogoing.

Words like 'guess' and 'probably' aren't very helpful...

I will wait to hear back from Kirk. Thanks.

Yes I believe so. The foam is just a form acostical damping. While helping to slowing up the moment and motion of the turntable spring's, which act as the turntables suspension system.
