Stillpoints vs Symposium Rollerballs

Hi

I am looking to improve the isolation under my Wadia 16i (it is currently sitting on a Quadraspire Q4 rack) and am considering Stillpoint and Symposium rollerballs. Anyone with experience/views on this? Many thanks.

For example, I have set up my TRL modded Sony 595 in 4 different systems over the past 3 weekends. Two of the systems liked the Stillpoints, one liked Rollerblocks, the other was happy with a HRS Nimbus/Stillpoints combo. My point is that there is no "One" single isolation device that will "fit" every system. Anyone thinking so is in for an education ... Jack

There is no one isolation device that will work in every system. I personally have multiple cones (brass, aluminum, maple), 1-1/4" and 1-1/2" maple blocks, Roller blocks, Aurious, Stillpoints, and HRS Nimbus discs. Some work well (sound) in one area but not another. If you'd rather not buy them all, join an audio club. Perhaps other members will have the various isolation devices available for you to audition in your system?
