Granite isolation bases

[BrianT]

Over the last couple of days, I have been putting together a pair of granite isolation bases, for my Pre and Turntable
using 19 x 21 piece of granite and a set of Dayton audio ISO-4C cones.
I think they worked out fine.

[Falcon]

You've got some really nice equipment Brian!  It mus sound excellent!

[SunnyDaze]

Granite gets enough of a bad rep as it is. You isolating it doesn't make things any better.

Kidding, kidding. That setup looks magnificent. Very cool!

[Reverend]

Very cool Brian, matches the 7's stands nicely!

I do have some nice gear, and it does sound real nice.
The only thing I would change would be the cartridge, but I have not got a spare $3000.00
for an upgrade.

I must agree with you, every thing matches well and has helped with the vibration issue I was having.

That is very nice. 
Right now I just put my Rega P-5 on the glass base that came with a SunFire Amp.  Under that I have blocks of Sorborthane.  I am sure mine is isolated, but damn yours looks good.

I am looking at the Transfiguration Phoenix Cartridges. The problem is I have not heard one
this is a trade show demo, 50% off list so down to $1500.00

I was getting feedback thought my turntable at high volume (nearly the same volume as Gary at CF)
That has stopped now, all I get is very loud music.

I need to try that...my sub is too close to the turntable/rack resulting in horrible feedback. I can't use the sub with the turntable....

I had to move my sub across the room because I was getting a good amount of rubble on my Denon running a MC, but nothing like at CF.  As stupid as it sounds, I made some blocks to sit my pre and amp on.  I have a bunch of butcher block I used to build the base of my one turntable.  I figured, why not cut up some pieces and put it under my components.  Verdict is still out if it improves anything.
