I was able to hammer two vertical beams into place in the basement so they support the wood floor in our living / listening room, beneath the rack and speakers. Result: we can jump in front the player without the cartridge skipping, and have no problems with footfalls, dancing, gym, etc. Probably my best feet/damping/platform investment ever.
Isolation Advice Needed
Hello, moving to a new home later this summer. The new house has suspended floors (wood over crawl space). No noticeable bounciness or floor deflection but so far I've lived in homes with concrete floors, so walking on the floor was subconscious activity. In the new house my steps are louder when I walk. So not sure what to expect when I setup my system in the new house.
I have all tube system housed in a Salamander rack. Any forewarning of unwanted vibrations creeping into the system and ways to mitigate them is greatly appreciated.
Current System...
Rega P6 (Audiomods Series VI/Shelter 501)
Aesthetix Rhea Sig. tube Phono
Graaf GM-50B Tube integrated
Wilson Benesch ACT Speakers (with Gaia II feet)
Best Regards
