What footer best under cd player


Consensus seems to be to put some isolation to replace cdp stock feet.

I have a playback design cd player which has three feet that do not appear removable

Anyone recommend stable cones or some other footer to use on wood platform of top of salamander rack (surface maple wood)

Thanks

As others have mentioned, there is no "best" and no real way to determine what works best for you except experimentation. It is NOT the case that the more isolation/absorption of vibration the better the sonic result. A bunch of friends tried different footers and exotic shelves under an Aero Capitole CDP once. The "better" the isolation (going from lower grade of Symposium shelf to higher grade) the more harmonically bleached and lean sounding the player became.

On my own player (Naim CD555), there is relatively small changes wrought by changing support.

You just have to try and see what are the results.
