Final Labs Daruma Bearings, Opinons?


At the HE show this weekend I saw some great looking bearings(vibration control). They retail for $99. At a third of the price of the Aurios and Symposium offerings they look very attractive. Does anyone have any experience with these or even better comparisons with the Aurios, Symposium, etc... devices.

I'm still using them under my Dodson DAC and Sony SCD-1. I have an unused set of Symposium RB IIs w/Tungsten Carbide balls, but until I removed my phonostage today for sale, there was no room under the Dodson to use them. I may give it a whirl. They are a 1/4" taller than the Darumas and I can't fit them under the Sony while using this rack.

I don't doubt Jim's take on the MIBs vs. the Darumas, but I bought two used sets of the Darumas for $155 delivered and I don't know if the money needed for the Aurios is not better spent elsewhere, as I need a couple more AC cords for things.

I paid $200 delivered for the NEW RB IIs w/TC balls, so I got a great deal on them. They look cool, but I can't comment on their affect on my system just yet.
