I'm considering new feet for the VPI scout. Im willing to spend 400-500 bucks. Who makes a foot good at draining vibrations away and screws into the stock base?
I completely agree with those that feel whatever feet one decides upon, a good plinth is most important for the best possible sound from a Scout. When I owned one, I couldn't believe how much things improved with a thick maple platform.
I let the spikes couple to the plinth, sounded better to me than coupling discs. I installed 1/4" x 20 threaded sleeves in the bottom of the maple plinth and then used short lengths of threaded brass rod to couple BDR carbon fiber cones as footers for the plinth. The threaded rod allowed me to adjust the plinth's level and get the plane of the platter perfectly horizontal.
