I tried a variety of isolation/damping devices: Black Diamond Racing cones and The Shelf (the thick one); Aurios Pro bearings; Symposium Ultra, Super, and Svelte platforms; Symposium Rollerblocks including Junior, 2+ with grade 10 bearings, 2+ with grade 3 bearings, and double stacked 2+/grade 3; Goldman cones; some Bright Star products; etc.

After a year of experimenting with different combinations of the above devices, the clear winner that emerged for both my CD player and my monoblock tube amps was the Critical Mass Grand Master platform. In my system, nothing came close at being so successful in reducing the vibration noise. That greatly enhanced the inner harmonic detail and nuances, micro transients, dynamics, musicality and involvement. It's no more expensive than some of the alternatives mentioned in this thread. They also have a couple of less expensive lines.
