Footers?

Any experience with the effectiveness of the Ginko 10 or 11s as platforms?

I use a Gingko Cloud 10 in my system. When it is mass loaded to Gingko's specifications, it is very effective at reducing vibration. I use Mapleshade Heavyhats to mass load.

I also use Bright Star Big Rocks, maple platforms (up to 4" thick), and BDR cones/pits/jumbo pits. Of these, the Gingko platform and the BDR jumbo pits are the most effective at reducing vibration. Both produced audible improvements in my system. With the others devices, it was hard for me to say whether they made an audible difference. Of course, YMMV.

The BDR are beneath the Ginko, or between the top plate of the Ginko and the bottom of the equipment?

I use the BDR jumbo pits and the Gingko platform under different components. Sorry I didn't make that clear. BDR jumbo pits under my amp. Gingko platform under my dac/preamp.

Thanks. I use BDR and Pits below Mapleblocks for my amps sitting on the floor, with Herbie Isopods[?] between the maple and the amp - that seems to work well. The Ginko design does seem to make a lot of sense - it sure does invite DIY at the price though - but it looks good.

If you're looking at isolation platforms, I really like what a Neuance
shelf has done for me under a Meridian CDP.
