    Thank you for this demonstration, and explanation on how to make very affordable isolation feet for a turntable.🔉🎵🎶

    I did this myself, without ever knowing this video existed. My Dual 1237 is not the heaviest plinth on earth, but it managed to crush the pool noodle disks I cut for the four corners of the turntable. Also, while it did help with some vibration, my turntable would still jump if I hit the dresser lightly (no other place to put the turntable in my computer room).

    Superb!..did-it w/my DUAL 1264, flutter with 'Platter Matter' on down by 4%. Almost free solution to go lower than best DUAL 1264 specs after 14% reduction of use of platter matter.

      yeah first thing I thought of not to mention I'm not dropping 1700 on a platform anytime soon but to say this will perform the same is flat out false and a straight up lie.

    buy a pack of cleaning sponges about 1 inch thick. no cutting required. grab the ones with 2 types of sponge on each sponge... ive done this and they work great, add one in the middle for better results, if the bottom of your turntable isn't flat, use two cutting boards with the groves for blood. place marbles in the blood track so the cutting boards are elevated by the marbles, and use the sponges under the sandwiched marbles cutting boards, now you have dual frequency isolation board for less that 50$ depending how much you spend on the cutting boards.

    Great tip but your speakers are not the most important part of your system. The most important part is the source, that is your turntable or CD player. Remember garbage in garbage out. No matter how good your speakers they only sound as good as what you feed into them.

      Right I agree with your thought. Except the most important piece to me is your power source which is your amp or receiver. But you are so right.
