RE: Vibration Isolation Technical Article- Interesting

Which is why the two turntables in my second system, which sits on the poured concrete floor of my basement, which in turn sits on solid earth, are so clean sounding. Because of the concrete base, there is not much effort required to isolate the turntables. No fancy stands or shelving need apply. They're sitting on an old but very solid wood dining room side table on dense cork or styrofoam like pads that are used to pack heavy but delicate instruments for shipping. (Someone at a warehouse gave them to me for free, years ago.) I've got those square pads shown in your photo, and I do use them, but I cannot hear any difference with or without them.
