Any experience with isolation feet that use suspension from Isonoe & Funk Firm? I'm thinking of building one or two platforms using one of those products.

I have a set of isonoe feet on my vintage Denon DP1250 TT. They're extremely effective in isolating the table from vibration. Highly recommended!

sorry I am unable to answer your question. I'm planning a turntable support myself, but I can't recommend my tactic. I have some marble slabs I got cheaply in a kitchen ware close out sale , and plan to use mass as isolation, dampened by sheets of wet suit material. I'm still in the thinking stage on that plan.

I went over to the website of funk firm , surprised they were still in business. In looking around , I came upon the old idea of cartridge isolation , which seems to make sense, but never really caught on for some reason.

I might get one of the devices , but not the very expensive offering from funk firm, after I investigate the idea to my satisfaction. that is with solid investigation , not just a bunch of happy people hearing things , and saying how good it is.

  I use a Seismic Sink under my turntable that I bought after reading Michael Fremer's review in Stereophile. it's really more appropriate for digital sources and I originally used it under my CD player. I just stream now and only use it because I had it laying around.
  
  It's somewhat ironic that I used to use a Brightstar Audio sandbox with excellent results under my turntable, but I got out of vinyl in 2005 and sold it and my turntable only to get back into vinyl in 2014. I haven't seen a Brightstar for sale since then but highly them if you can find one.

  I've been in touch with the owner, Arthur. He's been very helpful. I think I'll go ahead with the Bo!ng set from Funk Firm & have a platform built by a local woodworker, when finances allow.
