Re: Okay teacher.....


"My point was, are the 25lb+ sandboxes sold for VPI or other high mass turntables going to make the system sound worse?
Under my table which weighs about 40lbs, a sandbox really improved things."

Different methods can improve different things. Low mass/high rigidity tends to keep a "fast" sound, while isolation methods can effect things like imaging, transparency, frequency response, etc. Just like some audio gear that sounds good to others sounds bad to you...it's all about taste, I guess.

"I've got a short Target stand I may try it on just to satisfy myself. You "lightweights" may just be right after all........."

Could be. But then again, tubes and vinyl don't live up to the hype for some people :)

Take care,
