AudiogoN Forums: Isolation /platform for TW Raven One

Isolation /platform for TW Raven One

the wait is killing me but i should have by Raven One soon.
While reading the different forums I would like to get to more better about the different isolation platforms Raven One owners have used for this TT ?
I personally would probably start out putting the Raven under a wooden cabinet made out of MDF.
How about you guys ? whats been the experience ?

You can look up some of my posts to see responses about this topic, but basically, TW suggests a 1 inch thick slate for the table to rest on. I replaced the stock feet (mine didn't come with stillpoints - which yours probably do) with a Sistrum SP-1 stand, which used to rest on slate.

I have now gone to a very expensive active isolation platform, but SRS makes a specific platform for the table.
