It all starts at the source, which is what you put it on, as pointed out above HRS stands DO make a difference, anything to minimize vibration is a good thing.
I have 2 HRS stands and plan on getting another one, after that the turntable>tonearm>cart is the rank, get the best sounding table you can. even with a budget cart will do better than a lesser table with a better cart. I prove that to myself at home with multiple table/arm/cart set ups.
