VPI super mini feet under VPI Scout ??

I decided to purchase the Super Mini Feet to try under the Scout. I had to put a platform under the power supply to raise it up (mini feet are not that mini)and the power cord makes the motor sit at a funny angle now. My custom dust cover clears the feet no problem.

This may have been money poorly spent as I don't notice any discernible difference over the stock cones. Perhaps the Scout does not have enough mass to properly load the mini feet?

The TT is level and sitting on a rigid platform. Set-up is Scout/JMW 9/Linn Adikt cart, Simaudio LP 5.3. TT was set-up by a knowledgeable vinyl head so I don't think that's an issue.

Has anyone out there tried this? I'm thinking I should have just upgraded my cartridge to a Shelter 501 instead. Thoughts?

Cheers
