Vibration control question....


If I have access to a 18"x12"x3" block of granite for my CD player, would it be best to use spikes or can I keep using the vibrapods that I am using now ? Thanks in advance for any input.

If what I understand is correct, vibrapods (or vibra killers) will isolate the CD player from the granite (and whatever else the granite is placed on) while spikes will drain vibration from the player to the granite. If this is correct, will using spikes make the player more susceptible to footfalls ?
Or what about using cones between the CDP and the granite, and large vibrapods under the granite ? And what's all this about sticking linoleum under the granite ? Are you talking the 12" x 12" flooring tiles.... between the granite and the MDF shelf of my VTI rack?
Thanks for any input,
I guess some serious answers are out of the question ???
(sorry......I'm having a bad day)
Hey.....no problem. I set it up last night using cones under the cdp into the granite. Sounds good, but its a new house, new room so I still have to tweek speaker placement, etc.
Any other smarta$$ remarks? ;-)

By the way, I did try placing jello shots under my cdp first. Sounded a little muddy.
