I think a new Vibraplane is $2,000 to $2,500. It is very effective. You should call Sounds of Silence. Steve Klein is a good guy to deal with. I also looked at minus K, but per the note above from wrm57 I decided I did not want to deal with the balancing. The Vibraplane is easy to use and I check the leveling about once a month. It takes about 5 minutes. There is a guy on What's Best Forum that uses a Herzan. They are expensive.
