Cbrentc, I've thought about similar turntable damping tweaks. 2 thoughts come to mind, there.
1. How about putting that inner tube in a solid box with the inner tube inflated just enought to stick above the top of the box so that the shelf that the TT sits on still floats slightly above the box, but the box itself restricts any lateral type movements that result from vibrations.
2. Acknowledging Krell man and Stehno's assertion that "nothing can stop airborn vibrations", what if you had a large dust cover that could cover the entire TT and rest on the shelf itself and then weight that down with something quick? Would that work in helping stop airborn vibrations?
It wouldn't be a good solution for heat-producing components, but for a turntable? Maybe....
Anyone ever try shipping peanuts (those styrofoam things) as damping material?
