The Red Point tables are rumored have some serious reliability issues. Teres' prices have risen sharply over the past few years, and I don't think any of their models actually isolate the tonearm from the platter on a seperate base.
There's little advantage to placing the arm on a seperate base. It will greatly complicate set-up and assuredly increase the odds that your arm and cartridge will accidently go out of alignment, damaging them and your records. The only plus I can imagine might be a reduction of bearing noise, but most of that is picked up by the cartridge through the platter anyway. As I see it, there lots to lose and little to gain from such a design.
