VPI new Super Feet for Scout/Scoutmaster/Aries


VPI just released these replacement feet for Scout/Scoutmaster/Aries. Cost are $300 for a set, reasonable for Scoutmaster and above model. Has anyone tried them and how do they compare to something like Ginko platform or other isolation feet?

Personal opinion, I think they look very ugly on the Scout/Aries.

My new SSM looks and works great with the Gingko variation platforms. I am using a regular cloud 11 for the table and a mini cloud for the motor. This is a great combination for both looks and isolation. I also have a table top dust cover version for this table that was purchased before pick-up the variation platforms but it doesn't work any more due to interference of the cables in back as the table is sitting nearly 2 inches higher than it was. This can problem can be eliminated if you plan a head of time before buying a dust cover. I will send Gingko an email to let them know that this is what I am experiencing so that they can correct the problem for future users.
I have been using a Neauance platform under my Basis with very good results. I am awaiting a Scoutmaster (from Gina as a matter of fact) and will report bach soon.

For people with our table top dust cover and Cloud platform, we make matching beveled edge on the platform and cover such that the cover sits on the edges of the platform as opposed to on the shelf thus it will not interfere with the lemo wire. Looks better too.
Send me an email if you have issues and we will help you resolve it.

I asked the question of Gingko, who said that the new feet incorporates the balls of Gingko, and its like using their unit.
I just received the new mini feet. I've been using the Gingko Cloud 11. My hope was that the feet could replace the Gingko. Not even close.. the Gingko is much better. The feet are an improvement over the stock cones, but anyone hoping they are equal or better for isolation will be disappointed. They are, however, an improvement when used with the Gingko over the cones in the ways advertised. I spent qll day yesterday going back and forth trying to decide if it was worth it. The bass is slightly deeper,better impact, and the imaging cleaner as has been mentioned. I'm leaning towards keeping them but the advantage is subtle
