What do you have under your Black Diamomd Racing

My transport has BDR cones (AA MKII) I have it resting on top of a BDR Source Shelf that sits on top of my audio rack. I have heard that the Super Pucks that BDR has are even better than the Shelf it's self. But I'm happy with what I hear the way it's set up now........

I have my The Source Shelf sitting on four sorbathane discs, which separate it from the custom MDF component stand the Shelf sits on.

I actually found the most benefit from sorbathane underneath my turntable motor's feet, which isolates the motor from the Shelf. I understand that BDR makes special two-part shelves for some VPI turntables in order to isolate the motor (I presume that this is superior to sorbathane).

Don't get rid of the BDR source! I would get three BDR cones (which ever flavor 3s or 4s) and put them on top of the source , pointing up. Place your player on top. You will notice a big improvement. Things open up and there is even a greater sense of ease. This configuration is one of ther reasons why a shelf or source is so good.

I'm presently using the Source Shelf with four Sorbathane footers under my Linn Ikemi CDP and I like it. Decoupling appears to be the key. In contrast, I've ordered a Neuance platform for my Linn Sondek Lp12 from Ken Lyons. He remarked that it should perform excellent under the Ikemi also. I look forward to comparing the different philosophies with the CDP. I will try cones (Mk.3 & 4) pucks, and the Sorathane footers. I will comment on it in future threads. Cheers!
