My VPI MK3 skips if I walk near it.Should this be?

If you have a basement or crawlspace you can put floor jacks under your rack. Also you could try a Air Mass 19 from Bright Star Audio. I'm surprised to hear the pucks work better than the springs. I may have to give this a try...

I've heard VPI is going from springs back to pucks. I have a Mk 4. I removed the sorbathane feet and istalled brass spikes that threaded fine and were the same height as the SAMA. Much less motor vibration. Then I saw that Black Diamond Racing is making vibration kits for the Scout and Aries. The kits are 4 carbon fiber pucks and a 5" round platform for the Aries. So I bought the Aries set and it was like magic. I have one of the new SAMA's so it was a bit of a trick to get the motor on the platform. But the spikes go into indentations in the pucks and the motor on the platform. I can't recommend this enough. Music Direct sells it. They also sell a BDR record clamp that is out of this world. $300 though. Nice thing is you get a 30 day money back...
