Okay.How about this?Your problem lies with the heavy cabinet, particularly as it is on the supended flooring.If you place 2 small wood blocks or feet at the bottom/rear of the cabinet and then rock it bacwards and attach it to the wall studs, you will have effectively turned it into a wall shelf and placed its mass onto the much more stable building structure rather than the springy flooring. Your next step would be to try a low mass tabletop isolation platform like the Target VF1, RATA(Russ Andrews) Torlyte, Cetech composite or one of the less expensive Symposium platforms(I don't much care for the ultra).These units are amoungst the most stable and musical means of decoupling and PROTECTING your deck from the energy storing, information smearing mass of the cabinet and probably the least intrusive and convenient.The Brightstars would be musical death to your Delphi, IMO.

Isolation for turntables
I'm looking for some ideas on how to keep my turntable on the straight and narrow. My Oracle Delphi IV/SME345/Grado Reference is not in the ideal environment. I had a custom oak stand built for my gear and certainly blends well with the decor. Trouble is, my listening room has an oak strip hardwood floor, slightest footsteps makes the cartridge jump. Ouch. I bought a Townshend Seismic Sink HD and slipped it under the 'table, no real improvement. So, I'm going to sell the Sink and get something else, question is, what can I use to keep my rig from bouncing around? Thanks in advance for any and all suggestions, Jeff
