Hutter Platform 1
Posted by: John Channing on 31 March 2003
I noticed these isolation platforms on the Hutter website. Has anyone seen one in the flesh, or better still heard any kit standing on one?

Yes I have heard this under LP12 and under CD players. I think it brings worthwhile improvements to the LP12, in particular removing the mid-bass bloom. Not so sure about its effectiveness under CD players - simply haven't heard it enough to really come to a conclusion yet.
The LP12 improvement is immediate and obvious in my view.

Quote from the Hutter Site
spikes supporting the platform act as sound absorbers.
There's obviously something either Hutter or I do not understand here. I thought spikes produced no vibration damping, how do they 'absorb' sound?

I think the problem here is the translation. They also state: The core of the system is a free-floating platform set in a wooden frame which can float freely horizontally and vertically, so there appears to be some compliance in the device.

I've just installed a Hutter Rack at the weekend and it has certainly helped isolate my LP12 before hand I had to tip toe over to turn an album over now I can just walk over.
Never paid much attention to all the heated debates over rack's so I just bought one within my budget which looks great and I must say it has improved my hi-fi enormously.
