[78-L] Turntable vibration isolation

[simmonssomer]

I use four free standing "audio-technics" adjustable (corner) isolators. 
They feature floating/adjustable center inserts which are rotated by hand in 
the round (2 3/4" diam.) metal bases to increase or decrease height.
The metal base has a bottom consisting of  thin rubber uhhh...fingers  and 
the embedded floating insert( spring suspended ) features a top of a 
cushioned
velour like substance affording further isolation. Just close your eyes and 
try to envision.
Think of a metal two tiered wedding cake.
Can you see it?
I hope that these things are still available.
