Turntable Isolation platforms?

[ETI_5000]

I used enough Clearaudio Magix to enable me to utilise a granite slab atop the Magix. Upon which the cup and ball set-up sits. Barry Diament is adamant that the balls need to contact the component if possible. Thus coupling the component to whatever the cups and balls sit upon. As I said, in my case the cups and balls sit upon and are coupled to a granite slab. This theoretically modifies the mass of the GT 2000 due to it's mass being now coupled to the granite. That's my intention anyway.

Yes - what you are doing is increasing the mass of the turntable by (partially) coupling its structure to the granite slab, so it becomes harder to vibrate - it needs more energy (a higher sound level) to vibrate it, because the coupled mass weighs more. That's a well-proven.technique to reduce acoustic feedback.

I lucked into the use of a Paulson Magnetic Flotation Isolator for my PS X800. Paulson is no longer in business.

I apologise, but I don't own a camera.

Would you mind uploading a hand-made scheme to show in a more visual way how did you stack the different components of your isolation structure?

Dear Sir. I have already done just that. On that thread, you were the #19 poster:

There are some audio magnetic isolation feet on Ebay if you search those terms. Around $100 for four. I saw one set that held up to 10kg each so they would easily support a TT.

Oh, many thanks!! Sorry for that, my mind is fragile!
