Ok, 2 thoughts:

1) Forsell seems to have some air suspension for the CD platter.
I don't know in which axis/axes it works but if in the same as the
rollers (lateral motion+torsion) then there is a potential for a trouble
with a double compliance system.

2) You mentioned the transport is heavy. What is the transport bottom plate the
bearing balls worked against? The balls may have micro-dented the bottom plate
(very easy to imagine e.g. with a powder-coated steel) and the bearing instead
of isolating started coupling.

I plan to experiment with 25-30HRC hardened steel, working surfaces micropolished and
thread coupled to the steel & slate. But this comes after I get used to the TT on a new stand.
