Cool

oakenfold demands a squas ball cut in half sitting underneath of every foot of each deck to ease vibrations and to make it easier to cue without skips due to the TT moving.

just thought i would bring that up lol

ever thought that some of the ideas could be too bouncy?

cuz then everytime you touched the pitch adj., the whole turntable would shake, and probably cause more needle skips then it would prevent

so far, the best idea i've read would be the multiple cans and rubber bands idea. it wouldnt be too bouncy, but it would probably reduce lots of outside vibrations. but most of all, it'd be cheap!

King The best solution......

They best solution is to buy Vestax PDX from the start!!!!
The base and the top part of the TT are made of 2 different polymer with 2 different rate of vibration absortion (I dont know the right term but I hope you guys understand). This considerably reduce the amount of vibration that get to you neddles!

I bought vestax and Im happy because I never have problem like that!

unless you play out i dont really see the point in a suspension system! well unless you weigh 30 stone and stand next to your TTs and jump up and down! but ive never had any trouble with vibrations/skipping

I've seen that "tin can & rubber band" idea a few times, except never with tin cans, but rather with rolls of packing tape. I think you'll find they are sterdier, works really well!

But you'd think that method would make it even more likely to skip. Yeah sure it would reduce the amount of vibrations comming into the needle, alot. But think about it, it's just like having the damn thing on a trampolene. I have seen this guy on ta who spins on his bed! if you put those things under your turntables you'd be doin exactly the same!
