Floor type is wood, probably over poured concrete. It’s an apartment building so i can’t be sure but it’s really solid which makes me think concrete.
Best isolation platform for a turntable with suspension?
Hey all,
I have an Avid Volvere turntable which has a spring suspension system. Sounds great!
But - my rack isn’t the best. Since Corona and inertia are making upgrading my rack impractical right now, I was thinking I could improve things by putting the Avid on an isolation platform.
My question: since the table already has suspension, what should I look for in an isolation platform? High-mass rigid platform like a Mapleshade? Mass + a different type of isolation like the Isoacoustics Delos? Low-mass but high-rigidity like a BDR shelf + BDR cones?
Help!

@mikelavigne It’s a Sanus JFV65: https://www.sanus.com/en_CA/products/furniture/jfv65/ It looks nice and has an integrated mount for my 65” TV. Long term i absolutely want to replace it, but during this pandemic there’s no way I could do anything with this rack by myself. |
Thanks for the suggestions all! Lots to think about here. Re: Symposium - I looked at their stuff but since it uses springs I was thinking that it wasn’t going to do much for me since the Avid already uses springs as well. But maybe I’m wrong about how these things work. Leaning BDR at the moment but looking through these all. |
