Neuance or Z Slab shelf for Zoethecus rack???


I am buying a Z4R rack from Zoethecus. Is it worth the effort to go extra mile to get the Neuance shelves instead of the factory Z slab shelves??? I have heard different stories about both shelves' sonic effects. I am very confused and can't make up my mind which way to go. Thanks much for your kind inputs.

Misskuma,

Are you using the dh cones?
Are they being used under the Krell on top of the Neuance?

Thanks,
Richard
Sorry. I meant Neuance making Krell dance.
this is what happens when i post really late at nite.

No BDR, No Feet of Silence, No DH labs, No nothing.
I had Neuance custom fitted inside of Zoethecus frame and it sits
on four pads.

I use SR Composites' feet under krell, but, those are just for the show.
Misskuma,
Can you be a little specific about the custom fitted inside the Zoethecus frame? Thx.
of Zoethecus.
Have ken make his shelf in exact same size as existing Z-slabs and
simply replace Z-slabs with those. I still use four corner *puck* thingy
underneath, tho.
I agree about avoiding using cones etc. If your Neuance shelf is sitting on a rigid welded steel rack, and you support the shelf on upturned spikes, then there is no real need for fancy footers and most will just impart their own sound as you say Misskuma. I still find the upturned spikes under the new Neuance shelves to be beneficial. I know Ken is trying to meet a customer need to have a less industrial look, and so is trying to avoid the rack and spikes being so important, but if you can, I urge you to try upturned spikes under the shelf. The last AB I did with (what I think is) his latest shelf, between using vinyl bumpers and using spikes was a no contest in favour of the spikes.
