When I was at Garrard the only way to get a reliable measure for rumble on non-suspended decks was to use a huge crude version of this sort of device. Without the rumble measurement picked up traffic driving by 4 floors down across the carpark, as well as everybody walking in the lab.
I am not surprised the isolation removed a lot of warmth since this is a characteristic of no isolation, the lack of mechanical isolation results in the re-pickup of environmental sounds and vibration as a sort of added lower frequency reverberation, which can sound nice, and be great for bass lovers but is not on the record.

chris( very nice chap ) sent me one of these very nice looking plinths today for a home loan , which was nice as all other dealers i spoke to about isolation platforms want your credit card before they send you anything to try out Very nicely built and looks nice , standard wood plinth version oak finish matches my rack floor & speakers exactly
tried with my Dcs cd & Marantz bluray , both sounded better seems to work even when placed right next to my speakers on the floor & cranked up very loud with some deep techno
noticed increase in low level detal , with better separation & will try it tomorrow under my TT & Pre amp and maybe some of the heavier units with double plinths for my mono blocks , wonder what there higher spec units SE & REF & acyrlic versions sound like , will be a keeper i think this one

just to add to this thread

Kris very kindly delivered a PAB rack to my house

so far i'm very impressed with the build and sturdy nature of it and it definitely makes a statement visually

price compares very very favourably to other similar large footprints racks from the likes of Finite Elemente and SRA

I was so impressed with the rack that Kris took the demo one I bought back and I ordered 2 custom built racks to my chosen specification. They look great, sound great, very well built and unlike 95% of racks out there, they are perfect for large footprint equipment.

No affiliation, no trade links, no hidden agendas .... just a happy customer and a great person to deal with.
