Sorbothane Hemisphere Feet. Sound Isolation Pads for Speakers to Tighten Bass and Improve Sound (2" Pack of 8)

Vibrations were a concern for me with our floors, and they aren’t anymore! These kept my records from skipping even during my wild uncoordinated undulating movements approximating what some might call “dancing.” If it can handle a 230 lb man having a full bodied dry heave set to music right in front of it on a second story floor, it can handle most things. The only way I actually got it to skip was jumping. So, if you’re having drug fueled wrestling matches with Kenny G playing in the background, these might not be for you. But we use Spotify on wrestling night so that’s not a concern for us.

Thanks

I know this is not what they are sold for, but I have a desktop PC that sits on the floor next to my feet, and the vibrations were travelling through the wood floor and driving me bonkers. (Plus making an annoying noise.) These big soft feet were a perfect fix. Very peaceful now.

Most importantly, the Hemisphere Feet do reduce skipping significantly. The inverted cups fit (albeit just barely) over the existing feet of my c.1995 Technics SL-QD33 turntable, so I was able to retain the leveling function. On the downside, the cups are very soft and sticky, and the hard disc at the bottom does not seem well attached. Thanks to SeaMike for the heads-up about this. They do require careful handling during installation. Overall, however, they were worth the price.

I live in close quarters and footsteps in the house would bounce my needle, it was infuriating. Threw four of the 1” pads on and increased my arm weight just a little and problem is 98% fixed.

Good size feet to put under the turntable or its support. I had a lot of problems of moving around in the room causing turntable to skip during play. These eliminated that problem. So that's the reason for a high rating on sound improvement - no skipping.It's a two piece type 'foot' where a felt pad is added to the sorbothane hemisphere. Not sure that adds much value specific to a turntable. But the smaller size is just right for the weight of the table.Only dinged the value to '4' because the felt additions are not centered on the hemisphere dome peaks. Though I don't find that's created any negative affect on performance.

I put 4 on the turntable and it solved the skipping problem when people walk by. I plan to use the other 4 on the sub to see if it stops some of the vibrations.

Fit on well to an older Mitsubishi turntable. Worked perfectly to stop needle from jumping / skipping when walking close to my set up. Not quite sure about any noticeable audio enhancements but it obviously doesn't make it sound any worse.
