Just an observation here, but????????

If you don’t have the ability to get an absolutely massive rack w/ isolation platform and place it on a solid enough floor, then I think a proper spring suspension is your salvation. For “cost-and-obstacles be damned” folks, the former is better.

i have both. The heavy no-suspension table goes on a Critical Mass Systems rack. The sprung SOTA goes on a much cheaper Salamander.

@orpheus10 very clever to record onto reel! A good tape deck should probably be my next purchase. I’m also curious as to whether recording CDs onto reel tape can make them listenable, lol.
