it depends on how technical you want to get. Your interior walls that you may want to hang your table could be supported by the bouncy floors you mentioned. An exterior wall would load down to the foaundation in most cases and be the best solution for wall mount. The simple way to take some bounce out of a floor is to add a row or rows of bridging perpendicular to and flush with the floor joists. You are looking to increase your "load bearing" of your floor system and a google search of that would guide you further down the path of obcession.
Turntable on suspended floor - shelf or braces?
My setup is on a suspended floor over a crawl space.
I'm about to finally buy a turntable (Rega RP6 or RP8) and am going to have to to address the bouncy floor. I set up an old Thorens just to try it out and there is a severe foot-fall issues (who knows how bad other vibration will be).
Looking for suggestions on whether I would be better off to put the new deck on a wall shelf, or if I were to reinforce the floor itself?
The floor is over a crawl space with a few feet between the joists and the dirt, so I could easily install 3 or 4 jack-type supports that would bond the floor to the ground.
Does anyone have experience doing this? Would I be better off with a supported floor, or a wall shelf?
Thanks - djm
