Machina Dynamica under 'table?


I have checked the archives and found some good press on the Promethean isolation platform. Are there any new users or experience with it under a turntable? I have one arriving today to go under my Spacedeck which resides on a rack on a sprung floor. I am hoping this eliminates the remainder of floorborne vibrations that my existing Neuance/DH Cones didn't solve. And as a side note, I am expecting the sound to be improved too.

Any thoughts?

I tried one under my Acoustic Solid One. I can report that it's too compliant under a table that heavy and with an outboard motor. Despite Geoff's very helpful advice, it was nearly impossible to find a position for the springs that is both level and non-responsive to any vibration from the motor pod. I nearly lost my mind trying to make it work. YMMV with the Nottingham.

Note: I now use two maple blocks with 3 industrial McMaster-Carr air bladders between them, on Harry Weisfeld's recommendation. Works very, very well. They don't lose air either.
