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 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. |
I use Stack Audio Auva 70’s under my Proac Carbon Pro 6 speakers and Auva EQ under my Linn LP12. No BS these things do exactly what they say they do. My results are not subtle .Its very real in the best way StackAudio https://share.google/sZwuCNplXbWzid3rc

Dear @neonknight : According your TT pictures you are listening toit, maybe I'm wrong but if not then what you don't like in LP recordings that you know very weel. What's what yo think needs to be improved and why?

Digging around in an audio box, I found these footers that I had squirreled away. They have a compliant backing, and the center piece is adjustable with enough range for me to level the table. I really only need a couple of threads do accomplish this. So I put them in place this morning, and dialed in the plinth. After listening off and on all day I have no issues with what I hear. They are not significantly different than what is used on my Scheu table.
So with some extra money in my audio kitty, I decided to take advanage of this offering, and I bought a SUT made from the Stevenson & Billington transformers. This will be used with the Sumiko Blackbird Lo and the Pete Millet phono stage.
