Granit amp stands are they killing my sound?

I have a VPI Superscoutmaster/rim drive. I found that rubber or anything compliant under the table (as in footers) makes the sound "rubbery". I use Bearpaws...(Vermontaudio.com). They are very heavy brass cones and they really clean up the sound from the VPI supplied minifeet.

I get your point Syntax. Very funny post! Explain what is between your amps
and your Vibraplanes. Also between your MS and Basis turntables and their
Vibraplanes. Do you think a hard ball or point sounds different from some
rubber footer/insert under the components? If they sound different, surely
science is involved.

It would seem possible that granite may not jive with all amps. I would try directly on the floor vs. on the stands. For about a year I had my monos directly on the floor with the intention of some kind of stands. As you all know for anything nice well there's another $300+ each. So I ended up using 3" thick butcher blocks. I can't say it altered the sound in anyway, besides that was'nt the goal. They look fine to me and were on the cheaper side. Anytime I want to play with placement they easily allow for sliding of the amps. I suppose if using some spikes under the amps into the butcher blocks it would help drain any vibrations.

I never suggested that the Granite slab would resonate and ring like a bell. What I meant was because it is a hard polished like glass it may reflect/feedback and cause other objects to resonate. I don't know if this is universal, but it seems quite plausable. Mirror like surfaces are best avoided in audio land, that's all.
