I use a "vintage" Linn Basik (Akito) with no suspension to speak of except the large rubber hollow feet it sits on (the turntable is on a light but stable little table of its own, as per the Linn instructions!). I recently obtained a second REL sub and it's about 4 feet from the turntable, all on a classic potentially bouncy wood floor. The result is zero footfall disturbance, when I touch the side of the turntable when blasting something no vibration is getting through (at least that I can feel by touch)…and the damn table sounds great and plays beautifully. I keep threatening to replace this table but it works so well I can't get rid of it.
Suspensions on turntable...really effective?
Been wondering about this, so did some research, but was surprised I couldn't find any that categorically says that turntable suspensions really isolate/substantially reduce outside vibrations, resonances, etc.
Any reference out there you can point out?
Cheers
