Apart from the Techy TT it be interesting to know which other TT's people have fitted these to.

My own J.A.Michell 'Focus One' TT originally had a sprung loaded foot which was a bit too bouncy, ive ordered a set of Isonoe feet that should arrive around Wednesday, i can't wait to see what the outcome is, they will certainly look a lot better imho..

So then anyone? ive seen pictures of a couple er Rega TT's with em fitted.

The next question is im praying that i can fit just three of these feet in hope the rear of the deck does not cause level issues. If it does i may have to design a secondary base for four Isonoe's..

Speak to me..

Space out

I paid £109.00 for the set. They are usually seen on the Techy Brigade decks, can't say ive seen em on owt other than a couple of Rega owners decks, but for some reason they Used the four instead of the Rega's original three foot layout..Maybe for weight distribution, this is my worry.

The original three foot layout of the 'Focus One' had level adjustment via screwing the foot clockwise.

Im wondering if i can scrap the Isonoe bush & replace it with something that will let me level the feet perfectly..I also fear that in the long term the Cradle may fractionally sink, unbalancing the level!

I've been wondering what to put on the Toshiba I got as it arrived with the feet smashed - but I wouldn't pay that much.

Back to my worry each foots cradle will take 4Kg load
Weight measured underside of the original feet

Left side of the deck: 1.740Kg
Right side of the deck: 1.790Kg
Rear centre foot: 3.815Kg {This is the worry}

RDC Cones on bases nicely out performed Isonoes and Techniboots

which was a pain as I'd only had them 5 minutes

I'd be interested to hear how you get on Andr'e :) Some decks like being decoupled, others tightly coupled to a massy base ime. Not sure how your Michell will react though.

The original 'Focus One' foot was a sprung loaded foot so basically nothing different except i will get rid of the bounce that used to irritate me..However i have a metal finish issue with these new feet that wants sorting out if possible because im far from happy with it, they might not even see the deck yet..I have OCD & Metal is not finished to SME standards the old Barbarian aint playing..
