Unfortunately, your ultimate goal won't be met until you tried EVERY suggestion here and whatever article you read. Even then, it may be subtle and definitely subjective.
Scientifically proven fact and anectdotal experience aren't going to determine what your ears like.
That said, years ago, I tried the ridiculously priced 4" Mapleshade slab/pads underneath my VPI. It does create a convincing,difficult to describe,something vs. nothing. It also looks kinda cool since I have a cheapie $150 Sanus stand supporting everything .
I also have the brass footers under the table. A set of the black footers would look sharp under the Prime. I read somewhere stuff like the Stillpoints do magic as well.
