Isolation Cones/Bearings placement on CD Transport


I would like to know what is the best configuration for placing isolation bearings underneath a CD transport? Should I place 2 devices towards the front of the component and 1 in the back or 1 device in the front and 2 in the back? Are there any audible sonic differences either way? I am going to use a set of Final Lab's DARUMA 3-II isolation bearings on my EAD T-1000 transport. Thanks for the help.

I'm not sure about isolation bearings, but with spikes/cones/points, the ideal location is to place the 'vibration control object' dirlectly underneath the spindle, and also directly underneath the power supply. And for amps and preamps, the ideal location is always under the power supplies whenever possible.

I believe that weight distribution of the chassis does not really matter as much except in the case of safety where the component can more easily lose it's balance.
