What Theo mentions about supplementary posts is a good call if possible, because it's likely the most effective. Bridging will help as an alternative, but along similar lines would be to sister additional joists on either side of the joists where the load lies. Even if you basement is finished, this is not a hard job and cosmetically we're talking some drywall work and paint (both cheap). Of course, if you have wiring / plumbing through existing jiosts, that does add complication.
How to isolated stand from springy floors?
I currently have a relatively heaving stand with a couple tube amps and a turntable on it. My big issue isn't really sound quality but my concern over tube life. My Manely Stringray II makes an audible tube rattling sound when ever my fairly light self walks by and I hoping I can come up with a fairly simple and hopefully cheap solution to this.
What would you guys suggest? Damping the underside of the shelf the amp is on comes to mind or possibly some sort of iso feet for the whole rack to cut down on vibration.
