Vibration Isolation for Rega P3

I just bought a Rega P3. It’s sitting on a ¼ inch glass shelf on top of a three legged equipment stand (steel/glass_shelves.) The stand is heavily loaded with my HT components. The floor is wood and I live in a wood framed house. I do not have a problem with feed back from walking around but I am sure vibrations are getting to the TT.

Replacing the equipment stand is NOT an option (WAF)!

Which of the following is the best thing to do.

1: Nothing
2: Custom maple shelf on cones.
3: Thick Acrylic shelf on cones.
4: Boston Audio vibration absorbers under Rega
5: Ginako Cloud 10.

The best solution is a Neuance platform. It is a light mass platform and perfect for the Rega light mass design. I wouldn't put anything compliant under the stock Rega feet.
I've tried sandboxes, damping boards, Vibrapods, and endless other tweaks and the Neuance platform worked best of all. YMMV of course.
