Help with isolation for Linn LP12 on wood floor


Hi,

Thanks again to all members with their help with my previous hum issue. Now this system "Tubes that rock" is almost there! I moved the Turntable from the right side to the left side of the wall unit and it seems to be more acceptable to vibration and skips when someone walks by. I am not getting feedback while playing but I think it would sound better with some type of isolation device or isolation shelf etc. Unfortunately I know nothing about them. Suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks to all for your invaluable help

I had the same problem. A piece of 1X2 wood cut to the proper lenght and then wedged very tightly between the back of my audio rack and the wall behind it cured the problem completely.
I am having my best vinyl playback results ever using a wall mouted shelf. And my building was built in 1888 and has suspended wood floors which spring up and down even when our cat walks across the floor. However, you have to be sure you are using a stuctural wall that extend down to the foundation for best results.
I've been using mine on SoundOrganization wall mount rack for 20> yrs. to very good effect.
The lightweight base that forms the "floor" seems to be key. I've tried various substitutes, always gone back to the lightweight one
