I use the SRA base beneath my turntable.Has any users of this base changed the supplied footers to something
that would seem more substantial ??
If so,what do you now use and what have you tried.
Enjoy

I've stuck to what were provided as they are part of the isolation system.

You could always try stillpoint's under the platform for comparison.

Actually years ago, I had Kevin build me a special platform that used Goldmund cones. In the end, the new feet he developedfar surpassed the performance of the Goldmund cones.

Thank you for the replies.The supplied feet work very well with the platform.I guess i'm the eternal tweeker that must take things a step further before realizing i'm going backwards

some stillpoint dealers have a 30 day return. Music Direct comes to mind. Don't necessarily accept that the platform or speaker maker's for that matter have the best feet.

Which SRA variant are you using? If it is the Ohio XL2 Square, I would say you are well off with what it comes with. Trying different feet may change the characteristics of the tone, but I doubt it would improve the performance drastically in soundstaging or imaging.
I use the above for my analog, digital and pre-amp and find them consistent in performance.

Years back I tried the original Stillpoints under a suspended Kuzma Stabi Reference Table,The results were not as good as using a Symposium Ultra platform.
My current turntable TW GT is not suspended and works well with the SRA platform.The feet below the platforrm look at least to me, something that could be improved on.Myles stated that he had tried something else but found it wasn't an improvement.Everything sounds great as is so I just may leave well enough alone.

The feet in the SRA bases are attached to the isolating unit with in the base, so those must be used. All the good stuff that makes the SRA bases so effective is inside.

Hi Paul
I know the good stuff is inside but being the supplied feet are removable I was tempted to try something else beneath the SRA platform
