The feet I removed from it were the originals and they were not springy at all ..just regular rigid plastic screw on feet.
The spring feet work a treat on it!
Btw does your HK have it's original rubber mat ? Ive been looking for one
You are right, the T-65c has threaded rigid feet and relies on the suspended subchassis. The models below have a rigid subchassis and springy feet. I couldn't stand the bounciness of the model I restored recently for Dad, but he loved the sound of it and the isolation. It was on his desk for many months along with a couple of other TTs and an amplifier for headphone listening in his "office system".
Good question on the mat. I think I gave my Dad the mat and the heavy central record weight with the strobe markings on it. I'll check the box out.
Edit. Yes, I gave him the rubber mat, headshell and the record weight for the other HK I restored for him. Just checked my mat stash.
The T-65c is just a parts donor now (I think I've lost the platter somewhere in the storeroom too), it has an issue with the main bearing brass collar to the steel plate. There is movement with the platter on. Not the bearing but the swaging? to the steel mounting plate. I remember writing it off years ago as a viable restoration, but I never stripped it. I recently found out the bearing was the same as the lower models and I could have robbed the turntable I ultimately restored for Dad! Can't take it back now
