turntable isolation feet

I put my TT on a wood platform supported by Vibrapods and cones, which cost about $8 each. Its very effective.

Me too! I'm listening to my TT sitting on Vibrapods and Cones as I write this. The cone-on-pod comes to $14 per unit (the isolator pucks are $6 ea), but I challenge you to find *any* footer that comes close to what these do anywhere near the price. They have a 30-day money back guarantee. Why spend more before you ascertain that you *need* more?

If you can't quite level your rack to use them, you can always place file cards under the pods until you get the platter level.

I went it even one better and placed the whole thing on a 3-1/2" thick maple butcher block cutting board with silicone gel pads underneath. Those extras helped, but the Vibrapod cones and isolators do the heavy lifting.

You don't mention what turntable you have. I have a VPI, which was greatly
helped with the addition of Bearpaws...Vermontaudio.com

If you want to find Bearpaws, go to edensoundaudio.com. The Vermontaudio site has been decommissioned. You can get similar items from Mapleshade.

Still, for my money I'll take Vibrapod Cones and Isolators.

You can try a tube from a small bike below the Platform of the Turntable ...

I'll give a try to viropods. I had used a bike tire once. With an inch thick wood chopping board. I will also try it and see if there's any difference.

Thx

When I upgraded my butcher block from a 1-1/2" "hardwood" board to the 3-1/2" thick norther maple board I use today (with the Vibrapods and cones), I got a noticeable improvement that even my wife could hear right away.
