Best Turntable Isolation Materials

Seriously, I have no life.
From experience and actual measurements - mag lev is no different to any other kind of "springing"...

In my case I found that the damping provided by sorbothane, improved things more than the spring only behaviour of MagLev.... you can select different thicknesses and hardnesses of sorbothane to provide "springiness" - but maglev simply passes the energy through albeit refracted/difracted to a different frequency, whereas rubber/sorbothan style materials convert some of the energy into heat - so you dissipate more energy.
Springs are useless and actually make transmitted vibrations worse. Rigidity is the answer, and that has been my approach for over half a century. I can assure you that it is a total solution and the correct solution. I have had total freedom from transmitted vibrations for years. You can skip and jump all you want round my turntables and there are zero problems.
