I just had another one of those moments where its hard to stop smiling. I have my TT on a wall shelf and have had a chronic issue of getting feedback/rumble at higher volumes. I got used to it and hadn't tried anything until today when I opened my Delos box. I picked up the 22 in wide by 1.75in thick used from The Music Room. Wow!! The rumble is gone!! I am only 3 songs in but am so excited...I can't wait to experiment more and do some critical listening later this evening. What gave me confidence in this working was that I would only apply slight upward pressure on my plinth and the problem went away. There are many options out there but this beautiful walnut block looks pretty sweet and is very reasonably priced for the market. Happy listening and kudos to isoacoustics!!
Best isolation platform for a turntable with suspension?
Hey all,
I have an Avid Volvere turntable which has a spring suspension system. Sounds great!
But - my rack isn’t the best. Since Corona and inertia are making upgrading my rack impractical right now, I was thinking I could improve things by putting the Avid on an isolation platform.
My question: since the table already has suspension, what should I look for in an isolation platform? High-mass rigid platform like a Mapleshade? Mass + a different type of isolation like the Isoacoustics Delos? Low-mass but high-rigidity like a BDR shelf + BDR cones?
Help!
