So my new ....to me....Belles amp has some pretty basic feet which you seem to find on a variety of household appliances. Any ideas for nicer, isolation replacement feet or isolation pads? What has worked well for heavier gear for you in the past?

    Looks like a $60 hockey puck.......Not saying they don't work but no harm in trying some real ones first for $1 each.

    If you think the game pucks are too hard the practice pucks are a little softer.

    They're not even remotely close.

    I am wondering if iso pods would do the trick or if they would get super compressed by the weight. Looks like Pangea makes something that may fit the bill.

    They have different levels of weight support. You can mix them up to get the right support for each foot. I've read good things, but, have not tried them in my system yet. Thinking about it, but, thr not cheap. Component support seems fairly priced.

    Just be careful as many of these plastics can leave marks on wood.
