sistrum vs neuance

Joe order one or more, bring them to my Sistrum system..Larry and the boys of old can stop by for a listen. After we listen I can set up an RTA and calibrated mic record and photograph the audible data visually displayed and post the results..Tom ...Well maybe Warren is right.

I made this offer because I know how Sistrum works.I know how to make Sistrum work properly if I am allowed the time and space within one's system to set up Sistrum in a complete and orderly fashion..I know by years of experience and experimentation that my system is set up properly with Sistrum in use. I look forward to trying, testing, comparing, documenting, reporting, in concert with a few individuals in the local community of audio any and all so called isolation devices..I want to know more and to learn more..Tom

Tom the results are only as good as the understanding of the setup and the devices involved....the other Tom

Dekay, Brulee and I use to talk on the phone from time to time though that was a while back..Your right he did try both Neuance and Sistrum..I hope all is well with Bruce its been sometime since I last heard from him..Tom

Sutts if you try the Neuance with the Sistrum use the APCD coupling discs in between the points and the bottom of the shelf. Use another set of coupling discs on top of the shelf then points under the component .This may then work.. Why do you think a Sistrum Neuance combo meal would be better than raw Sistrum only? Tom

Sutts being an avid supporter for years of Audiopoints and later Sistrum and now a dealer of both,I would recommend that you not use a shelf of wood or one that decouples..At this point because of the architecture of the Sistrum rack I would use a similar material to that of the actual shelf,.that material would be leaded steel.The actual makeup..I do not know the formula..ask Robert. I can tell you from experience that in the the design of a new end pin for cello and bass the use of dissimilar materials totally created havoc with the sonic signature and speed of the instrument. Most of these pins use 5 different materials. So to keep the sound consistent and coherent and whole I would place a leaded steel shelf on top of the upward facing points of the Sistrum shelf.On top of the new shelf but under your mono amps I would use correctly sized Audiopoints choosen to match the mass of the chassis above..Tom

Larry maybe Ken will send you his devices for demo..Maybe then you and I as well as others can partake in a resolute demo. I have the other branded products so we will be half way there. Tom

Yea there are a lot of posts I write and then delete or never post at all. Talking to a few others on here they find themselves doing the same thing more and more often.Tom

Sutts the best way to use your mono amps is to have mono platforms..An Sp-1 for each separate chassis would insure that they are totally mono thru out, except for that one common ground plane ..Earth...I have experienced the change in my personal set up..Better imaging and focus..Tom
