Cd transport isolation

Out of curiosity does anyone have experience using different isolation products for transports? My CEC TL51x rests on 4 pieces of masterbase. But I have been thinking about trying out something different like Solid Tech feet of silence or Aurios Pro-Max. Now I’m a bit skeptical about isolation products in general. I haven’t tried without masterbase yet since I had them lying around.

So has one played around with different isolation products van transports or CD-players. Are those products any good? Or is the same investment better spend for isolation of the speaker.

I use a solidsteel H-6 audio rack. The shelves are made of MDF. The rack is very good for its price but I don’t like the looks of de MDF shelves. Can I replace them with “real” wood like maple or some other wood? Would that have an influence? Or doesn’t the material of the shelves have an influence on the sound?

For my complete system see my virtual system.

FWIW, after trying countless variations over the years, including some mentioned above, I have finally found extreme satisfaction with the following combo under my digital sources, (configured as the text is viewed)

-Front End Device
-Boston Audio tune Blocks (w/tungsten carbide beaings)
-SAP Relaxa magnetic levitation platform

These are mounted on a multiply decoupled very low mass lossy rack, the result of which has been a very apparent increase in soundstage size, dynamics and resolution, without any tonal shift.... and all up for very minimal financial outlay.
