I can hear all of you groaning from here - just chill!
Yes, I am reviving this over a year old thread to let everyone know I have
FINALLY resolved my Linn LP12's footfall problems with the bouncy floor in my listening room.
Strike up the band!
After a gazillion delays in getting a custom shelf cut for my turntable wall mount, I finally (with the help of fellow Audio Syndrome member, Mel) have things worked out. I pulled my system apart and started working on my new combo wall mount and audio rack. I finished the shelf and one visible cleat in black (pix to follow) to match the rest of the Ikea pieces I had bought months and months ago, drilled a "boatload" of pilot holes in the wall to find studs to mount the two (2) horizontal cleats to, assembled the CD storage section into the outer shell of the bookcase, screwed it all together and mounted the TT top shelf.
I re-assembled my complete system this past weekend, including my Linn LP12 and Ureka!
NO MORE FOOTFALL PROBLEMS!!!Not only have I gotten to listen to vinyl for the first time in over a year in my house, I got to hear the Soundsmith MMP3 phono stage I bought used on AC around New Years 2013 along with it. All I can say is WOW! The Soundsmith phono stage is so much more "alive" than the phono boards in my old Naim system. It's almost like I got a new turntable!
All I can say is that this was worth the wait! I will post pix soon.
