What footer best under cd player

There is no method that qualifies as best for everyone.

Try a few options and decide for yourself.

(Hint: cones are not isolation devices, they are coupling devices)

Yes right decoupling.....well apex footers are pricey and time and error is expensive so would prefer not to employ trial and error

Were it so easy.

Everyone's system and preferences differ.

There's no shortcut to listening for yourself. The best method is to select two
or three recommendations and buy a used example of each. Listen, compare
and choose the one that you prefer.

Otherwise, gather all the helpful replies to follow. make a pie chart with the
suggestions, and toss a dart.

My suggestions for decoupling are a Neuance platform or sorbothane footers.
For coupling, I suggest a Sistrum platform or Audiopoints brass cones. These
are not intended to be definitive, but I have found each makes a difference.

(I own a Salamander Synergy rack and use Neuance shelves in place of, or in
addition to the stock shelves. I use sorbothane between the shelves and the
metal support pins).

-Foculpods-. Better than sorbathane. Got em under my cdp and dvd player

I agree with Tvad about Star Sound products. I liked them so much I became a dealer for them. But since I do not sell on line there is a modicum of objectivity in my advice. They have a very pronounced effect and it is possible to over damp your system if you use too many. But a set under one unit would be a good place to start. Remember, as the others have said there are many products out there that work in different ways and only you can decide which you like. But as you say you cannot try everything. Try checking products you are interested in in the discussion forums.
