Needing To Order Turntable Feet. Looking For Options and Experiences

Time to get some proper feet under the DP80 project. Currently have some temporary ones there. The question is to go hard feet that are pointed, or to go with compliant feet. 

 

The complete table weighs a tad over 50 pounds. The plinth is made from uhmw, an industrial polymer. Not an overly heavy plinth, but by listening sessions it does appear to do a great job in its role. 

One option is a set of magnetic feet I got with my DP75 table that replaced the stock Denon feet. I cannot tell the manufacturer, but AI tells me from an image that they are Michell that predate the Levis feet. I could repurpose them. 

 

I have also looked at these. One set is designed for VP19 turntable weight, which is a similar amount. 

 

I do want an option that allows for leveling. I am curious to learn from other folks experiences.

I did not see them mentioned, but I have had a lot of luck with these feet from MNPCTECH.  I had used them on a vintage Thorens turntable but they make these in many shapes and sizes, and they are adjustable.

Your audio equipment, room and ears are unique to you. Have you tried experimenting with other isolation solutions?

I have found in all my configurations that the Solidtech Feet of Silence have been the footer that brings the most support when supporting the TT's Plinth.

These, as a usual qty to be used, don't enable a large weight to be supported. I have not had to look into larger weights needing support by the FoS, but knowing somebody with a metal lathe who would easily produce a design able to take an increase in weight.

A friend who became an advocate many years ago using laminations of Board Material as their Plinth design produced their own version to take a heavier plinth weight and also made Speaker Sub Plinths using the same suspension design.
