Best isolation cones

Wanting to purchase some new isolation cones for my amp and Oppo 105. See Nordost isolation cones however wondered if they are really worth the extra money or are there any alternatives? One of the things I don't like about Nordost cost is how high they make your unit sit. Also I have seen other isolation components like Vibrapods or Pangea audio Mega feet at a fraction of the price.

Advice please

Thanks

You need to try a bunch of different cones. They don't all sound the same. Sometimes you get lucky and they don't make any difference at all.

Regardless, I use Cable Company for this. They sent me a whole assortment of cones to try first. I ended up liking Polycrystal and DH cones the best.

"Isolation if it were possible would have no descriptive adjective attached.Tom "

Of course. If isolation were possible, we wouldn't even be talking about it.
