Allen, what kind of "plate" would you use between the innertube...

and the SCD-1?

I own 4 granite plates - each circa 60 x 40cm and 5cm thick - and weighting enough to not want to carry them more than a few steps by choice. That would be my ideal - but as the SCD-1 weighs so much by itself - when we moved to Switzerland and had not yet unpacked the granite plates - we just sat the SCS-777ES directly on the inner tube - and that worked so well that we've not bothered to reset it with the granite plate between it and the inner tube..

>Also, would you remove the SCD-1's feet or count on the innertube to raise it off the surface enough to avoid the necessity of removing them?

We didn't remove the feet - I consider that would be pointless - and as we sometimes take the player to a clients home for demonstrations, we need them. The inner tube we use is small enough in diameter to just clear them. It does lift the SONY feet's clear of the support table more than enough - about 1cm.

>I'm just having trouble visualizing my SCD-1 sitting on the innnertube<

You forget how weird it looks after you hear it...
