Sorbothane cones, or a slab of it you cut to fit, work for all my vibration issues. Google sorbothane to read about it. I got a 1/4 inch by 12 x 12 piece for about $30.00 and cut it to fit as support for all my components. My turntable would skip if I didnt approach it on cat-paw feet. Now I walk normally and detect no issues. Multiple pieces at multiple levels. Feet of the rack, suspension points for the shelf, and on the feet of the component.
Vibration Control for Lightweight Tube Components
I'm looking for suggestions to isolate a lightweight tube preamp from vibration and resonance. Not acoustic vibration, but physical vibration from the stereo rack. When I touch the shelf the preamp sits upon, the sound can be heard thru the speakers.
I am using a heavy furniture grade stereo rack for my components, all using Herbie's Tenderfeet for isolation, including my TT. The preamp only weighs 7 lbs. and has Herbie's tube dampers applied, but needs to be decoupled from the heavy wood shelf. I've tried the Tenderfeet and Vibrapods under the preamp, but neither provided isolation from vibration.
So, what are owners of lightweight tube preamps and amps using for vibration control? (there is a limited amount of space between the shelves).
