Thank you Caelin!

It has a built-in aluminum platform and stainless steel feet. But a good shelf/stand from one of the great rack builders works well. Symposium, HRS, Core-Design, IsoAcoustics and many others. Some people are using thick butcher blocks or planks of granite to good effect.

The Everest is not centred on the butcher block. Better that way?

Default Everest or Denali 6000/S v2

Diversitech pads also work if you have the Denali tower and space constraints.

Yep, those work, too. I've got a bunch of those around the house. I've found the traditional cork and rubber damp imparted power (vibration) a bit better, however. Still they are much better than rubber feet, etc. Compared to Herbie's Tenderfeet, they raise the resonant peak to about 50 Hz, vs ~30Hz for the Tendefeet.

But the best, by far, are the EVPs from Norm Varney's A/V Roomservice.



Comparison of power, RMS, of stock rubber feet, Tenderfeet (TF), Diversitech pads (DVT) and EVP imparted to my audio rack comparing these different vibration damping footers, analyzed in JMP 15. As can be seen in the plot, the EVPs blow the other footers completely into the weeds.
