Is there really a need for special racks? How much difference does isolation make?

All opinions welcome,

Crystal

I would say with a turntable isolation makes a big difference. And with tube equipment as well.

Makes sense to me. CD players could probably skip less with isolation racks too if the music was loud.

Thanks,

Crystal

Hi,

My experience is that they don't make much if any of a difference. I've tried many kinds of isolation devises. None of them made any difference in the sound I heard. It's one of those things that fit into the "I think I heard a difference but it could be in my mind" type of thing. That said, I still use them but I wouldn't expect much of a difference. IMO. I look at them as finishing touches to an already fine system. Of course if you have your CD player on a cardboard box to begin with....:-)

Hope this helps.
