I am using Gingko Cloud 11L-B (for Scout/Scoutmaster 15x20.5) with excellent result. It comes with 5 balls which is optimal for 50 lbs mass which is perferct for the Classic (45 lbs) plus ring clamp. Bass response is deeper, tighter and midrange/high seemed smoother and much quieter.
My TT initially sat on acrylic platform on top of 3 inverted spike on steel bar supports with legs filled with leadshots and spikes into carpet. Not exactly the best equipment rack but not so bad either. My only complain of Gingko is that when the motor first started to run, there is a bit of sideway motion as the Gingko's topshelf can have quite a bit of lateral movement. It takes a few seconds for everything to settle down.
I have Symposium Acoustic Ultra platform as well that does not seem to do anything much for the Classic. I actually prefer the sound of the Classic directly on my rack rather than with the Symposium. I think it is mainly because Symphosium platform does not work well with rubber feet as they recommend solid coupling for it to work. I did not try the Classic with Symposium aluminium coupler feet however. But Symposium worked very well with my old turntable which has solid feet and is now put to good use under my amp.
After playing with damper fluid for a few days, I also compare using only twisted phono wire vs using anti skating mechanism. In my system, using anti skating mechanism with only 2 rubber band on arm to keep the string in place and no rubber band on the other arm seemed to produce the best sonic. I am now mcuh happier with the result and now I can't wait for the Dyna XV-1s cartridge that I should get next week.
