Table enhancements on a budget-

Hello,
I'm acquiring a mint, one owner Sony PS-X600 Biotracer table for $90. The only issue is that it's missing one foot. I doubt I'll find an original replacement. I'm tempted to try the Isonodes posted here on Agon for $25 the quad set. I also see a GEM Dandy replacement mat. Anyone using the GEM Dandy mat? Is this a decent mat for the money versus the stock rubber mat? Will end up mountng a Denon DL-110 or DL-160. Thank you.

The most rewarding tweaks come from vibration control. You'd be amazed what you can do with some sand in a ziploc bag and blue-tack!

Of course, it requires experimentation and repetition of albums over and over again but it's worth it!

Save your money and DIY!

If your table is a suspended design, I believe you can overdamp it.

I've been tweaking my Gyrodec a lot and found that it's possbile.

The sound just sort of dries up....goes lifeless. You lose the room acoustics in the recording.

YMMV
