Turntable isolution often trial and error

That review was a long-winded way to say that turntable isolation is not a one-size-fits-all proposition.

Over the years there have been a lot of attempts to accomplish this. I fondly remember the old AR turntable. It was great for isolation from airborne interference, but God help you if your turntable was on a cabinet sitting on a wood floor with any bounce. At the far end were the tables with the solid bases with the decoupling through the feet.

I've found that that the only way to get a good turntable set-up is to try several options in your home. (Though I did have one friend who built a concrete pillar in his built-in audio closet that went down to the foundation. He was pretty free to use whatever table he wanted.)
