turntable skipping with footsteps

I had same experience as Wwshull. The target wall mount shelf solves the problem with the lp-12. I don't think you can use an lp-12 on a wood floor, unless the floor is heavily braced and the turntable "stand" is directly on a support pillar.

Yet another reason to not buy a Linn turntable.

I solved my footstep problem in my listening area w/a Ginko isolation platform. Now I can dance!

Consider applying a couple of 4x4 planks upright beneath the floor (in the basement/room underneath the room with teh turntable). If these are measured correctly so that they barely fit (you have to kick them into place), they can solve a lot of the footfall issues.

I opted for a wall mount and found it easier to set up than I expected and I've no issues.

Do wall-mounted shelves work that well in those wooden houses in the US? I'd imagine the vibrations would get into it either way.
