looking for best isolation platform for CD player

Looking for best isolation platform for High End CDP , Linn / Audio Aero Capital/ Ensemble new cdp out next few weeks / not sure yet what I'm getting. Using XA7ES right now.

I have a stand now ( Atlantis ) and looking at audio points /silent feet, not quite sure if these are the right ideal or is there a perfect platform specialy for CDP .

Note: just bought Sistrum SP1 for my amp should be here next week.

Tom, I agree with Sean. Hang with us in this audiophoolish "gon" world. Your honesty, pen and tongue are always welcome. You're a true power. You stand by what you believe in based on your tympanics. That's the real deal. Where everyone else goes with that doesn't matter. peace, warren

Sean...Can you explain it? "Working optimally" (your words) means that error-free data transfer is happening at the greatest possible bandwidth. In practice this means that correctable errors are occuring. Reducing the error rate can't hurt, but unless the unreduced rate is more than the encoding is designed to handle, it will have no effect on the final result.

Thank you Sean. Error correction seems to be some sort of low level pollution the less the player has to correct for the more clarity and ease of sound.Tom

The particular vibration isolation table that I have used is a Halcyonics unit similar to their current model Mod-1M. Check it out on their web site: www.halcyonics.com.

Although I remain skeptical about the necessity to isolate CD players, I can tell you that this vibration isolation table does a superb job.
